Dear Sir/Madam,

 

I refer to your request for:

 

Please provide a copy of the Risk Assessment for the Alpine Fault and the
likely impact it will have on our city.

 

Council Response

The Council does not hold a risk profile for the city and there is no
specific city risk assessment.

 

Therefore we have decided to refuse your request under the following
section of the LGOIMA - 17(g) – the information requested is not held by
the local authority.

 

Any questions regarding localised/regional defence issues (including the
Alpine Fault) can be directed to CDEM – via
[1]https://www.cdemcanterbury.govt.nz/cante...

 

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
[2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

 

Kind regards,

 

Sean

Wow. So Christchurch City Council has no "risk assessment" for a city (and quite frankly the bulk of the S.I.) where it is currently expected that we will have an alpine fault event within only a few years.

Greymouth District Council seem decades ahead of these guys...

CCC were able to fulfil my request.
This is surprising when you consider we are the South Island's major city. CCC have no Health and Safety Risk Assessment for the major risk event of the Alpine Faultline which is overdue to rupture in what is expected to be a major earthquake lasting over 4 minutes. It is predicted to be at least an 8 possibly a 9 magnitude quake. It will impact not only Christchurch City but the whole island dramatically.

Dear Official Information,

I ask again for the Risk Assessment for the Alpine Faultline. At the long-term plan hearing I was assured that the CCC does have one.

Yours sincerely,

T Dobbie

Kia ora T,

 

On 23 May 2024, you requested the following information, under the Local
Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA):

 

I ask again for the Risk Assessment for the Alpine Faultline. At the
long-term plan hearing I was assured that the CCC does have one.

 

First, we would like to apologise for the confusion, it appears that there
was a miscommunication here as your original request was misunderstood as
a risk assessment created by Council.

 

Christchurch City Council, through the Civil Defence & Emergency
Management team, utilises the AF8 assessment and documentation. All of
which is publicly accessible online.

 

This was the primary reference material used to create the CCC Earthquake
Plan and includes external assessment of the potential risk.

 a. SAFER Framework (the main part of AF8)

 b. AF8 Risk Profiles. (attached)

 

 2. Canterbury Group Plan (that Brenden mentioned):

decision. Complaints can be sent by email to

Dear Official Information,

Thank you for that document. It is not a Risk Assessment for the Alpine Fault. The information within it is very limited around the risks of the Alpine Fault on Christchurch City.

The councillors at the LTP hearing assured me and the public that there is a Risk Assessment.

Please provide me a copy.

Yours sincerely,

T Dobbie

Kia ora Dobbie,

 

I've discussed with relevant staff, and looked through our systems and a
more specific risk assessment does not exist. The risk assessment that
they were referring to was the one sent through.

 

Thank you,
