A suitable contractor is required to undertake an effective ungulate culling programme of Waingake in Tairāwhiti.
Waingake is a Gisborne District Council owned property of 2,700ha, consisting of 1,000ha of post-harvest pine forest cutover and 600ha of secondary native vegetation in various stages of regeneration and maturity. In addition, there is also the 1100ha Waingake QEII Waterworks bush which sits adjacent to Council’s revegetation area, it is the largest and most significant remnant of lowland podocarp-broadleaved-beech forest in the Tairawhiti region, it is also a major contributor to Gisborne city’s water supply and home to several rare and threatened flora and fauna species. To protect the natural regeneration and recently planted native trees a comprehensive ungulate culling programme is needed. The aim is to eradicate all ungulates in this area and maintain a 1km buffer zone, thus giving the plants the best chance to establish while also addressing browsing damage throughout the QE2.
