Present:

His Excellency the Governor in Council.

WHEREAS the Christchurch Tramway Board, incorporated under “The Christchurch Tramways District Act, 1902,” is desirous of making and constructing an embankment across that portion of the tidal lands of the estuary of the Heathcote and Avon Rivers lying between the point where the Sumner Tramway-line passes the northern extremity of Rural Sections 4 and 866, known as “Andrews Quarries,” and the point where the said tramway-line passes the northern corner of Rural Section 262, known as “The Cutting,” for the purpose of thereby effecting a deviation of the said tramway-line: And whereas the said tidal land is within the limits of the port or harbour of Lyttelton:

And whereas the Lyttelton Harbour Board, upon the application of the Christchurch Tramway Board made in that behalf, did by resolution passed at a meeting of the Lyttelton Harbour Board held on the sixth day of August, one thousand nine hundred and three, assent to the construction of the said works: And whereas the said Christchurch Tramway Board has deposited in the office of the Marine Department plans (three sheets), marked M.D. 2668, of the whole of the proposed work, showing all the details thereof and the mode in which it is proposed the same shall be carried out: And whereas it appears to His Excellency the Governor in Council that the proposed works will not be injurious to or tend to the injury of navigation:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in exercise of the powers conferred upon him by “The Harbours Act, 1878,” and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, doth hereby approve of the said deposited plans and the construction and maintenance of the said works, and doth hereby make and impose the following restrictions, conditions, and regulations for the purposes of the said Act:—

1. The proposed embankments shall be so constructed and thereafter maintained by the Christchurch Tramway Board as to allow the tide to flow freely in and out to and from the tidal lands lying to the south of the said proposed embankment, and between the said embankment and the foreshore of the said tidal lands.

2. One, two, or three permanent openings, of the aggregate width of not less than fifty feet, in the said embankment, at such place or places as shall be approved of by the engineer for the time being of the Lyttelton Harbour Board, shall be provided and thereafter maintained and kept clear so as to allow the tidal water to flow freely in and out at each tide.

3. It shall be the duty of the Christchurch Tramway Board to maintain, repair, and keep up the said embankment and openings and all works connected therewith.

4. The said embankment and tram-line thereon shall be used for conveying passengers and goods, and for the general purposes of the said tramway, and, save as aforesaid, shall not be used or permitted to be used as a road for other traffic, or as a thoroughfare or right-of-way, and all necessary steps shall be taken by the Christchurch Tramway Board to prevent it from being used.

5. The Lyttelton Harbour Board may, by its officers, agents, servants, and workpeople, at all reasonable times enter, pass, and repass on and over the said embankment and the tram-line thereon for all and every purposes and purpose connected with the said tidal waters, land, and foreshore, and for the purpose of ascertaining the state of repair and maintenance by the Christchurch Tramway Board of the said embankment and openings therein.
