THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 599

whenever the Governor shall determine to construct
any waterworks under the powers conferred by
Part III. of the said Act, he shall from time to time,
by Proclamation published in the New Zealand
Gazette, declare and specify the waterworks which
he proposes to construct, and the lands and streams
of water proposed to be taken for the purposes of
such waterworks, and any such Proclamation may
refer to maps, plans, or drawings to be deposited
in the office of the Registrar or Deputy Registrar
of the Supreme Court in the Province in which
such waterworks are proposed to be constructed,
and any maps, plans, or drawings so referred to shall
be deemed to form part of such Proclamation; and
upon the publication of such Proclamation, the pro-
visions and regulations contained in the Eighth Part
of the said Act shall be applicable to the lands and
streams and the waterworks, to which the Proclama-
tion relates: And it is also thereby enacted that, for
the purposes of the Third Part of the said Act, the
Governor or any person authorized by him, subject
to the restrictions and provisions therein contained,
may exercise any of the following powers (that is to
say),—He may enter upon any lands and take the
levels of the same, and set out such parts thereof as
he thinks necessary, and dig and break up the soil of
such lands, and remove or use all earth, stones, trees,
or other things dug or gotten out of the same: He
may enter upon, take and hold such land as shall
from time to time be specified in any Proclamation
made under the Third Part of the said Act for the
construction or improvement of any works authorized
in and by the Third Part of the said Act: He may
from time to time make, maintain, or alter such
reservoirs, dams, races, aqueducts, waterworks, drains,
pipes, culverts, engines and other works, and erect
such buildings in or upon the lands and streams
authorized to be taken as he thinks fit: He may
from time to time divert and impound the water from
any such streams as shall be specified in any such
Proclamation, or alter the course of any such
streams:

And whereas by "The Immigration and Public
Works Act, 1873," it is enacted that it shall be suffi-
cient, in any Proclamation under and for the pur-
poses of Part III. of the said Act, to describe in
general language the waterworks to be constructed,
and the lands and streams of water proposed to be
taken; and it shall not be necessary that such water-
works, lands, and streams shall have been surveyed,
or be specified by name or boundaries or area :

And whereas by a Resolution passed by the County
Council of the County of Westland, on the tenth
day of August, 1872, and assented to and con-
curred in by the Chairman of the County Council of
the said County, the Governor was requested to
construct works for the supply of water to the
Westland Gold Field (the same being a duly
proclaimed gold field) : And whereas, in accordance
with the terms of the said Resolution, the Governor
has determined to construct and maintain certain
works for supplying water to the said gold field:

Now therefore, I, Sir James Fergusson, Baronet,
the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in
exercise and pursuance of the powers and authorities
conferred on me by the hereinbefore in part recited
Acts, and in exercise of every other power enabling
me in this behalf, do hereby proclaim, declare, and
specify that the water works proposed to be con-
structed under the said Acts are waterworks for the
purpose of supplying water from the Kawhaka Creek
and its tributaries, and other streams, as mentioned in
the Schedule hereto, to a portion of the Westland
Gold Field aforesaid, together with all such drains,
races, aqueducts, pipes, culverts, buildings, and other

works that may be requisite or necessary for the said
waterworks; and I do hereby also proclaim and
declare that the lands and streams of water proposed
to be taken for the purpose of such waterworks are
those which are described in general language in the
Schedule hereto; and in pursuance and exercise of
all powers and authorities conferred on me in that
behalf, I do hereby fix the point of commencement
of the said waterworks to be a point on Kawhaka
Creek about four miles easterly from the Christchurch
Road, and the point of termination thereof to be a
point at or near Ballarat Hill, in the County of
Westland.
