Impact of a planting programme on historic and archaeological sites of Quail Island, Lyttelton Harbour

چکیده
A programme of planting native trees on Quail Island in Lyttelton Harbour has been proposed by the Otamahua/Quail Island Ecological Restoration Trust. The impact that this would have on the Maori and European historic and archaeological sites on the island is assessed. It is concluded that in several areas the planting and growth of trees would adversely affect these sites (some of which are protected under the Historic Places Act 1993).
