Version 1 [July 2012] i Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response Plan
1 Introduction
This plan has been prepared to provide a Civil Defence Community Response Plan for
the Tutukaka Coast community in the event that the community is required to respond
to any civil defence emergency or take action in advance of any civil defence
emergency to prevent potentially devastating effects.
When an emergency occurs, this plan will be activated by the community in
response to the event. Other agencies will respond to the event by activating their own
plans and coordinating their activities with other agencies to manage the impact on the
community.
This plan has been prepared with the aim of providing an effective, planned civil
defence emergency response that links the community and the civil defence
organisations in Northland.
In preparation of surviving a civil defence emergency the community should undertake
to be personally prepared with survival kits of water, food, lighting, heating, radios,
spare batteries and medical supplies (see back page of the phone book for more detail
on survival information or visit www.getthru.govt.nz).
2 Plan purpose
The purpose of this plan is to identify hazards that may impact on the Tutukaka Coast
community and to provide a plan whereby the community within is able to respond and
remain self reliant for at least 3 days without any outside assistance if an emergency
occurs.
3 Community overview
The Tutukaka Coast is located just 30 minutes drive north of Whangarei city, on the
east coast just above the Whangarei Heads. The Tutukaka Coast faces east to the
open coast and includes the Ngunguru Sandspit, Whangaumu Bay, Tutukaka Harbour
and Matapouri Bay. Woolleys Bay and Sandy Bay are directly facing the ocean swells.
See appendix 1 for an aerial map of the civil defence plan area for the Tutukaka
Coast.
Vulnerable members of the community include; all areas exposed to wave action
including the Ngunguru estuary, this is an area where the sea wall has been damaged
in past storm events and if a substantial storm surge was also present would result in
significant damage. There are areas within the Tutukaka Coast that are often isolated
from each other during rain events; these include the Tutukaka Block Road, Tutukaka,
Matapouri, Woolleys Bay and Sandy Bay. If these areas are isolated from each other,
they, along with Ngunguru, will be isolated from the rest of the Whangarei District.
When this happens the area is often without power and phones.
Also members of the community with medical conditions that once cut off have limited
medical care and those with physical disabilities.
Hazards which pose a significant threat to the Tutukaka Coast Community include
flooding, landslips, cyclones and storms, forest fires and tsunami. A more detailed list
of hazards and their effects on the community is contained in appendix 2.
Version 1 [July 2012] 1 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response Plan
The number of dwellings with permanent occupants in the Ngunguru Tutukaka area is
about 75%, this changes in Matapouri to Sandy Bay to 50% or less.
The permanent population of the Tutukaka Coast area is approx 5,000 with an increase
over the summer period possibly exceeding 10,000.
Ngunguru township lies on the east coast with most of the township sheltered by the
Ngunguru Sandspit which extends across the Ngunguru Estuary. The township is
spread across the waterfront from Te Maika Road to the north, to Tongatu Road to the
south. The community is divided into small pockets of housing with separations
occurring from the junction of Te Maika Road down to the primary school and from the
community hall south. The vulnerable areas for flooding in Ngunguru vary depending
on the event but include the water front areas being most at risk, Ewen Street and Snell
Point, inland Waiotoi Road and Kakariki Road and Munro Place. All low areas should
be considered to be at risk from Tsunami.
Located in Ngunguru are a day-care, community hall, library, shop, takeaway, café,
hairdressers, real estate agents, garage, fire station, ambulance station, hardware
store, doctors surgery, primary school, sports complex, Marae, church and play group.
The majority of residents of Ngunguru are permanent with a approx 25% of baches
Over the hill north towards Tutukaka, Tutukaka Block Road turns right to Whangaumu
Bay headland that extends from the Tutukaka Harbour south including Oturu Bay,
Church Bay, Pacific Bay, Dolphin Bay and Whangaumu Bay (Wellingtons Bay) at the
end of a no exit road. These areas are vulnerable to isolation due to land slips blocking
the roads and flooding. Most residents on this headland are permanent with approx
30% being baches. There are three motels on this headland.
Tutukaka Harbour is located North of Ngunguru and has a hotel, shops, store, camping
ground / holiday park, restaurants, deep sea anglers club, Marina Office and marina.
The Coastguard is also based here. Most residents at Tutukaka Harbour are
permanent. The risks to the Tutukaka Harbour area landslips and tsunami, especially
in the Marina area, which remains affected hours after a tsunami wave has receded.
Over the hill and North of the Tutukaka Harbour is Matapouri Bay, Whale Bay and
Woolleys Bay the townships contain a mixture of permanent residents and absentee
bach owners and a camping ground ( unofficial summer use only). Matapouri has a
Marae, hall, toilets at the beach and a shop. Matapouri Bay is at risk of landslips,
flooding, and tsunami and can be cut off if the one lane bridges to the village go down.
Further north again is Sandy Bay which faces directly towards the ocean swell and
regularly has surf and large swells. Sandy Bay has is at risk from landslips, flooding,
storm surge and tsunami.

Version 1 [July 2012] 3 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response Plan6 Alert and Warning Systems
The Whāngārei District Council is a member of the Northland Regional Council Civil
Defence Emergency Management Group and receives warning of adverse natural
events from Central Government, the Meteorological Service, the Institute of
Geological and Nuclear Sciences and from other agencies.
See appendix 4 for a description of warnings received and disseminated in New
Zealand.
Warning systems in place for the Tutukaka Coast community are as follows:
International warnings
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre (PTWC) sends notification of tsunami in the
Pacific Ocean area to all registered subscribers. When a warning from the PTWC is
received in New Zealand it is evaluated by the Ministry of Civil Defence Emergency
Management for its relevance to the New Zealand coastline. If considered necessary
the ministry will issue National Tsunami Warnings and Advisories and notify regional
and local Civil Defence and Emergency Services and pre-planned warnings and
evacuations will be put into effect.
National warnings
These will be received by Councils and Police/Fire/Ambulance Communication Centres
and disseminated to regional and local emergency responders. National Warnings
come from the Ministry and from different agencies which are contracted by the
ministry (see appendix 4-warnings for New Zealand). For example:
Metservice issues severe weather warnings and watches for storms, cyclones,
snow, thunderstorms and wind.
The Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences (IGNS) provides earthquake
and volcanic bulletins.
The Ministry of Health and District Health boards provide public health
warnings.
MAF disseminates alerts and warnings for animal disease outbreaks.
The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management provides tsunami
warnings and advisories.
Natural warnings
For some natural events there are no pre-warnings, for example an earthquake. But
an earthquake can be a natural sign that a tsunami may follow if the sea has been
displaced. This natural warning should be heeded by the public who should make for
higher ground.
Version 1 [July 2012] 4 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response PlanLocal warnings
All television and radio networks will provide public information. Public should listen to
the radio, refer to the back of the phone book and follow instructions.
Community warnings
The Whāngārei District Council will ensure, where possible, that all warning information
is relayed to the Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Group by phone.
The Tutukaka Coast community encompassed in this plan has in place a phone tree
method of contacting members of the community to warn them of an impending event
that may have a significant risk to life and property.
The telephone tree is made up of permanent residents, some of which are Tutukaka
Coast Civil Defence Response Group members (see section 9). These people will
make every endeavour to contact the next available person on the telephone tree,
activate other pre-existing telephone trees and make face to face contact with
neighbours that are not permanent residents.
The first calls will be to all at risk areas to initiate evacuation if required.
Communities and individuals can evacuate when and if they want to at any time without
direction if they so wish to.
Other options
Signage
The Tutukaka Coast community will receive signage which can be appointed to all
beach access points during a tsunami threat to advise members of the public about the
impending danger. The signage will be kept by:
Fire Station, School, Medical Centre, Play Centre and shop for the Ngunguru Township
area
Sands Motel for the Whangaumu Peninsula
Tutukaka Shop and Marina Office for the Tutukaka Harbour
Matapouri Shop for Matapouri Bay
Matapouri Shop for Whale Bay
Mark Wheeler’s property for Woolleys Bay
Dave Gould’s property for Sandy Bay
Version 1 [July 2012] 5 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response PlanCommunity sirens
The civil defence Tsunami sirens have now been placed within the community. There
are currently thirteen sirens within the Tutukaka Coast community positioned on power
poles by North Power in the following locations:
Siren Number Pole Street Address or Location Description
Number
17 59189 Matapouri Road Sandy Bay
18 20887 Matapouri Road, Woolleys Bay

26 59260 1919 Ngunguru Road, outside Telecom
exchange
69 59306 Ngunguru Road between Papaka Road and
Haven Place
Tsunami Siren at Tutukaka Marina
Tsunami events in past years have shown that Tutukaka marina and the entrance to
the marina can be particularly affected. During such a tsunami event, it is dangerous
for vessels to attempt entering or leaving the marina. This area of the harbour
experiences strong surges even during smaller tsunami events.
A tsunami siren and warning light are installed on the breakwater at the entrance to the
Tutukaka marina. The siren is a standard tsunami siren as seen along the rest of the
coast, while the light will be a yellow flashing light visible day and night.
The system will be connected to the civil defence network and will be remotely
activated whenever the rest of the coastal tsunami warning system is triggered on. The
siren will only be active for 10 minutes every hour, while the light will remain on for
as long as the tsunami danger exists. In addition, only the light may be activated
manually when dangerous conditions are expected in the marina and the
entrance. Mariners are being advised that as long as the warning siren and/or the light
are active, they should not attempt to enter or leave the marina. Mariners are also
being reminded that the safest position for a vessel during a tsunami is in deep water
well clear of the coast.
Version 1 [July 2012] 6 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response PlanUpon hearing the sirens people are advised to seek further information as to the
situation. This can be found on websites:
Northland Regional Council

The sirens will only be activated and deactivated by North Power when a request is
sent from Civil Defence at the Northland Regional Council. Sirens are activated when a
threat is posed to the New Zealand coastline as assessed by the Ministry.
Sirens are an alert to the public that there is a threat to the coastline and the public
should then seek further information from the civil defence website, radio, news and the
Tutukaka Coast civil defence community response group as to what that threat is and
what action should be taken.
Tsunami Indoor Sirens
North Power has indoor tsunami warning sirens available to purchase, that plug directly
into the wall socket and are activated at the same time as the larger sirens through the
Ripple Control method of activation and deactivation. Contact North Power for more
details on price.
OPTN network
The Northland Regional Council’s OPTN text message service will be promoted
through the local community newsletter as a means of receiving warning messages.
This will only be useful for those who have cell phones and in areas which receive cell
phone coverage.
To subscribe to this free service at http://nz.optnmobile.net/signup/civildefence
Vehicle Mounted PA System
Four portable full power megaphones, fitted with siren and voice function, have been
purchased with funds provided locally by the Tutukaka Coast Ratepayers and
Residents Association Inc.
Car horns
Car horns will be used to alert residents that there is a tsunami and an immediate
evacuation to higher ground is necessary.
If there is a greater lead in time before a tsunami arrives then the Tutukaka Coast Civil
Defence Group will distribute the warning message by utilising telephone trees and
door knocking.
Version 1 [July 2012] 7 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response PlanSocial Networks
Social Network sites such as Facebook and Twitter may also have information; both
the Northland Regional Council and the Whangarei District Council use Social Media
and have both Facebook and Twitter accounts. The Northland Civil Defence Group
also has a Facebook page.
7 Emergency Response Levels
Incidents or emergencies are categorised into five levels reflecting the intensity of
scope of the event that has occurred.
The broad headings of the levels of response are:
1) Local incident declaration not required and emergency is dealt with by the
Emergency Services.
2) Local incident declaration not required, but some external support is necessary.
3) Imminent state of local emergency is being considered and whether it is of local
significance.
4) Imminent state of local emergency that is regionally significant.
5) Imminent or state of National emergency.
8 Declarations
Only the following persons may declare a state of Civil Defence Emergency within the
Whāngārei District Council:
1) The Mayor of the Whāngārei District;
2) An elected member of the Whāngārei District Council authorised to act on
behalf of the mayor, of if the mayor is absent; or
3) A member of the Northland Civil Defence Emergency Management Group.
When a civil defence emergency is declared, the Civil Defence Emergency
Management Act 2002 is invoked which gives Emergency Services and Police
additional powers over and above their respective acts, however,
THE CIVIL DEFENCE CONTROLLER HAS ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY OVER ALL
PERSONNEL DURING A DECLARED CIVIL DEFENCE EMERGENCY.
The lead agency in the event of any undeclared emergency response is the
agency that has the legislative or agreed authority for control of the incident or
emergency.
Examples are:
NZ Fire – control and suppression of fires and other specialist functions.
NZ Police – maintain law and order, exercise additional powers as required
during the state of emergency.
Ministry of Health – control the outbreak of infectious diseases.
All instructions given by the Emergency Services and the
Police or lead Agency must be followed without exception.
Version 1 [July 2012] 8 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response Plan9 The Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Group
The persons listed below form the Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Group. This group
should meet at least annually with the community to discuss and review the plan and
liaise with the Whangarei District Council’s Civil Defence Officer to effect any changes.
The role of this group is to assist in the initiation of an early response, disseminate
warnings within the community covered by this plan, identify and set up a welfare
centre or emergency control centre if required, situation reporting, plan review and
updating.

Protection under the CDEM Act
The CDEM Act (Section 110) provides protection from liability for Controllers, local
authority staff, contractors and volunteers, in a state of emergency. Any person
performing their functions, duties or powers under the CDEM Act is protected from
liability for loss or damage caused by their actions or omissions due to a state of
emergency. Despite section 110, no person is exempted from liability for an act or
omission that constitutes bad faith or gross negligence.
Re-imbursement for costs
Fair and reasonable costs incurred by the community during the emergency will be
reimbursed by Council. Those costs associated with the caring of people evacuated
from their homes or adversely affected by the event, or any actions taken to protect life
should be collated by the Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Group and forwarded to the
Emergency Management Officer at the Whangarei District Council.
Version 1 [July 2012] 9 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response Plan10 Incident Management Team Responsibilities
The overall responsibility of the Tutukaka Coast Community Civil Defence Group is to
liaise with police and emergency services to initiate and assist in response to a civil
defence emergency.
The Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Group responsibilities prior, during and after an
emergency are listed below.
Prior to an emergency:
Inform the community that communication pathways have been established (i.e.
telephone trees) to disseminate civil defence warnings
Ensure that people are prepared through a community education campaign
Test the plan as required and participate in exercises
Ensure that the community is informed about the community response plan
Create, update and maintain a telephone tree
Meet at least annually to review the plan.
During an emergency:
Activate the Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Community Response Plan
Ensure that warning information is disseminated to the community as quickly
and efficiently as possible
Liaise with emergency services if at all possible to get an overview of what is
happening and what is required
Relay information back to civil defence in Whangarei (if at all possible)
Provide a situation report for the community and request assistance if required
Setup an emergency control centre or a Civil Defence Community Centre if
required
Provide assistance to the emergency services to help evacuate the affected
community.
After an emergency has occurred the main avenue for the collection of information will
be from local sources and those persons identified in this plan. The early collection of
information is very important as it will assist in determining the scale of the response
that is required.
Version 1 [July 2012] 10 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response PlanAfter an emergency:
Carry out damage assessments
Work in support of any recovery efforts
Hold a de-brief of the groups response to see if there needs to be any

continued
Arrange to get the plan updated with any improvements or new ideas that have
come about as a result of an emergency.
There is also the commitment of the Whangarei District Council to provide the following
in support of the Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Group:
To maintain and ensure that early response warnings are being received by the
Whangarei District Council
Ensure that vital information of any threat is forwarded to the Tutukaka Coast
Civil Defence Group without delay, where communication is possible
Provide advice and guidance to local communities developing and testing their
plans
Provide opportunities for training and exercising as requested by the Tutukaka
Coast Civil Defence Group
11 Agency and other group responsibilities
The roles and responsibilities of the emergency services are clearly defined by

Version 1 [July 2012] 11 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response Plan12 Plan Activation
This plan may be activated by the following:
Incident Controller
local emergency services personnel
the Tutukaka Coast Community Civil Defence Group chair and/or alternate in
consultation with either of the above if contact can be made
The Tutukaka Coast Community Civil Defence Group chair in isolation only if
contact cannot be made with either the Incident Controller or local emergency
personnel.
There may be situations when an event has not occurred but the local community is
concerned about the impact of a potential threat and this plan can be activated. For
example an impending tsunami or cyclone may cause the activation of this plan.
This plan is also designed to be activated when there is limited or no contact with the
Whangarei District Council and it outlines the process the community will go through to
work together to support themselves in an emergency.
The community may also be asked to activate the plan as part of a local, regional or
national exercise to test its capability.
13 Civil Defence Community Centres
An emergency control centre or Civil Defence Community Centre may be established
for any event if it is required. An emergency control centre can be set up at the
discretion of the Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Group. The location of the centre will
be determined by the impact of the disaster. An emergency control centre may be at
the same location as a Civil Defence Community Centre if one is to be set up.
If there is enough time the Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence Group will convene at the
Ngunguru Sports Complex or try to teleconference to determine the best location to
setup an emergency control centre and possibly a Civil Defence Community Centre.
The Community Response Group should when possible inform the Whangarei District
Council when it is contemplating setting up a Civil Defence Community Centre. In
absence of any means to contact the Whangarei District Council the Response Group
can set up a Civil Defence Community Centre to receive evacuated persons from
within the Tutukaka Coast area.
Possible locations for Civil Defence Community Centres include (see appendix 9 for
more information on access, contacts and resources):
Ngunguru Marae
Matapouri Marae
Ngunguru Memorial Hall
Matapouri Hall

14 Communication
Communication is the critical component of this community response plan. People
within the community must be alerted to an impending emergency or be contacted after
an emergency or an event has occurred. Communication must also be made outside
of the community to relay the situation and/or request any assistance back to
Whangarei Civil Defence.
This plan must also be communicated to the community.
Communication within and between communities
Communication typically relies on the following communication pathways:
Telephone
Cell phone
Fax
E-mail
Radio Networks
Pagers
Radio telephone
Face to face (neighbours calling on neighbours)
Camp ground information to campers (announcement/signage)
During emergencies there are often disruptions to these telecommunications pathways
(i.e. with loss of power, cell phone towers and poor satellite coverage) and the following
alternatives have been identified if traditional communication pathways have become
interrupted to communicate with those outside the community:
Coastguard marine channel
Fire station channel back to Whangarei
Marine VHF radio channels (if all mainstream communication is lost and there is
an imminent threat to life Marine VHF radio may be the communities only option
for communication)
Communication to either to the Whananaki or Pataua civil defence groups to
the north and south of the Tutukaka Coast.
Alternative communication within the community when the normal means of
communication has been disrupted:
Face to face contact
Whistles, alarms
Loud Speakers
Marine channels (see above)
Version 1 [July 2012] 13 Tutukaka Coast Civil Defence
Community Response PlanCommunication of this plan to the community
This plan needs to be communicated to the wider community if it is to be effective and
representative of the entire community. The following have been identified as means
of communicating this plan to the wider community:
Presentation at community meetings
Stands at community events
Notices on community notice boards
Notice or articles in community newsletters
Training exercises

Community Response PlanAppendix 3 Hazards
Significant threats to the Tutukaka Coast community include but are not limited to:
Threat Probability Impact to the Tutukaka Coast
Flooding High Road Access denied especially when associated with a high
tide
Most areas in Tutukaka Coast community are affected by
flooding
Community can be cut off from the outside and from within
itself very easily
Areas that flood include all low lying coastal areas
Community will have to be self-sustainable
Land Slips High Road access denied as slipping occurs on most roads
Damage to property or homes can occur
Community may have to be self-sustainable but slips are
cleared quickly by council staff
Cyclones & High Can be life-threatening
storm Cause of panic & fear - in particular to elderly
Loss of power affecting water pumps & appliances
Telephones not working properly
Damage to property or homes
Issues with high winds especially when there are still many
campers about
Sand blasting also occurs on properties facing the open coast
People may have to be evacuated due to storm damage
Community may have to be self-sustainable
Forest High Can be life-threatening
Fires Extreme risk at peak season due to dry weather
Risk increased due to arrival of visitors in the area
Road Access could be denied
Damage to property or homes especially those that are tucked
away in the bush
Community may have to be self-sustainable
Tidal Medium Becoming more frequent
Surges Cause of flooding in some areas
Coastal erosion - foreshore damage especially to beach from
homes all along the low lying coastline
Tsunami Medium Definitely life-threatening as a large proportion of the
population is located on low lying land
Total evacuation of residents & visitors necessary
Community to head for higher ground
Evacuees need to be self-sustainable
Pandemic Medium People may not be able to leave their homes
Services may be disrupted
Food supply may diminish and supplies hard to source
Community may have to be self-sustainable
May be a great issue in this area due to lower-socio economic
residents having more vulnerability to this hazard
Hazard identification determines which hazards threaten areas of the community and
the probability identifies how likely it is that the disaster will occur.
