- **Liquefaction was mapped here after the February 2011 earthquake**, [Liquefied in February 2011](https://www.chch.live/liquefaction) · The survey recorded this as certain. Mapped from aerial imagery and site visits after the event, this is a record of what happened, not a model of what might.

### Water
- **Inside the modelled 10-year flood extent**, [Flood risk, 10 year](https://www.chch.live/flood-hazard) · Styx catchment · 10 Year · A 10-year event is one expected about once a decade, not a rare one.

The council has not verified this, which is true of 898 of its 906 entries._

### [Rules on this land](https://www.chch.live/rules)
- **Christchurch / Ōtautahi Clean Air Zone**, [Clean air zone](https://www.chch.live/rules) · Open fires and older woodburners are restricted here under the Canterbury Air Regional Plan. A burner installed before 2001 cannot be replaced like for like.
- **In the Christchurch Airshed**, [Gazetted airshed](https://www.chch.live/rules) · A gazetted airshed is the area the national air quality standard is measured over, the 24-hour PM10 average that this one is allowed to breach once a year. _Zone A_
