Hugo giving a great overview of the issues, lots of good information on the Empower ChCh website, make sure you check it out.

LAND DAMAGE
CAN NOT ALWAYS BE SEEN FROM THE SURFACE

2. We are asking for clarity
We need answers.

TAKING PLACE

3. WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED
• Question: Groundwater
• 1. How does EQC calculate land damage caused by
the post-earthquake rise in groundwater levels?
The effect of shallower groundwater is potentially a thinner non-liquefying
crust. Where there has been a material increase in liquefaction
vulnerability caused by the Canterbury earthquakes, this is addressed by
the Increased Liquefaction Vulnerability (ILV) land damage assessment.
Further, the effect of being at a lower height relative to sea level is
potentially an increase in the flooding vulnerability of the land. Where
there has been a material increase in flooding vulnerability
caused by the Canterbury earthquakes, this is addressed in the
Increased Flooding Vulnerability (IFV) land damage assessment.

4. • EQC has begun settling claims which include IFV land
damage and expects to have completed the majority of
these settlements by early 2016.
• Land claims which include ILV land damage will start to
be settled once the ILV Policy is finalised.
• This is expected to occur in September 2015. This
means ILV claim settlement is likely to continue during
2016.

5. ECAN
ECAN is supposed to have
maps for erosion risk along
the estuary.
According to the
information from Ecan
today. The land seen
here pre- and post
earthquake is not
subject to erosion risk.

6. ECAN
Ecan briefly published this map on their website last year.
It is not published any longer. Their reply today navigated me
to a map without any erosion hazards

7. Statue of Limitations
• I am not a legal expert. This is a matter for the Lawyers
• The Law Community has expressed concerns about
this.
• We have asked EQC to provide explanations to the
public. This issue can not be silenced.
• Duncan – are you able to explain this matter and the
consequences if EQC does not conclude the land claim
settlement before Sept 2016?

8. Is it time to say
Enough is Enough
Thank you
