31083033_1.docx
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 My full name is John Kinross Mckensey. I have prepared a primary statement of
evidence dated 7 August 20181, and confirm my qualifications and experience as set out
in paragraph 1 of that evidence.
2. CODE OF CONDUCT
2.1 I confirm that I have read the Code of Conduct for Expert Witnesses contained in the
Environment Court Practice Note 2014 and that I agree to comply with it. I confirm that
I have considered all the material facts that I am aware of that might alter or detract from
the opinions that I express, and that this evidence is within my area of expertise.
3. SCOPE OF EVIDENCE
3.1 I have reviewed the evidence in chief of Mr Glen Wright2 on behalf of Auckland Council
dated 21 August 2018 and I respond to Mr Wright’s proposed amendments to my
description of light sensitive areas for this project. I understand that the proposed
conditions of consent have been agreed between Panuku and the Council and I support
the latest version of the proposed conditions.
3.2 In this statement of evidence I also summarise briefly the amendments to the draft
Construction Lighting Management Plan that was attached to my evidence in chief, and
attach the updated version to my rebuttal evidence as Appendix A.
4. LIGHT SENSITIVE AREAS
4.1 In paragraph 9.4 of Mr Wright’s evidence3, he has proposed amending the definition of
light sensitive areas that I proposed in paragraph 5.2 of my primary statement of
evidence. In my opinion his proposed amendments would broaden the definition to
include locations beyond the adjacent neighbouring properties.
1 EB Vol 1, E12. 2 EB Vol 3, E45. 3 EB Vol 3, E45, page 1705.
2941
31083033_1.docx
4.2 The policies with respect to lighting at section E24.3(2) of the Auckland Unitary Plan
(AUP) state as follows (emphasis added);4
Control of the intensity, location and direction of artificial lighting to avoid significant
glare and light spill onto adjacent sites, maintain safety for road users and
minimise loss of night sky viewing.
4.3 Consistent with the above policy, my proposed definition is applied to adjacent sites. This
is shown graphically in my primary statement of evidence in the light sensitive areas plan
at Appendix A5 and the Construction Lighting Plan at Appendix B6 of my primary
statement of evidence.
4.4 In my opinion it would be inappropriate to expand the definition to include sites other than
those which are adjacent, as it would impose a more stringent requirement on this
application than that anticipated by the policies in the AUP.
4.5 The proposed Conditions of Consent7 will adequately protect adjacent locations in my
opinion. Since lighting effects tend to diminish with distance, any properties beyond those
adjacent the application site will also be adequately protected.
4.6 The changes proposed by Mr Wright would expand the scope of the definition to include
far away locations that may have a glimpse of the application site. While it could be
readily established that any such effects would be less than minor, it would be
unreasonable and unnecessary to expect the applicant to address concerns raised by
observers beyond those adjacent the site.
4.7 I support the latest version of the proposed conditions, as attached to the rebuttal
evidence of Mr Karl Cook and Mr Vijay Lala.

5. CONSTRUCTION LIGHTING MANAGEMENT PLAN
5.1 Version C of the Wynyard Edge Alliance Construction Lighting Management Plan
(CLMP) was included at Appendix B in my primary statement of evidence. It has now
been updated to version D and is attached as Appendix A to my rebuttal evidence.
5.2 The following changes have been made in the progression from version C to D;
a) At section 1, acknowledging and incorporating the changes that have occurred
to the proposed Conditions of Consent8;
b) At section 2.3, acknowledging and aligning with the Navigation and Safety
Management Plan; and
c) At section 3.2, updating to align with my proposed definition of Light Sensitive
Areas.
5.3 I have reviewed and support version D of the CLMP, attached to this evidence.
6. CONCLUSION
6.1 In my opinion the definition of Light Sensitive Areas should not be altered as proposed
by Mr Wright at paragraph 9.4 of his evidence. The definition should remain as drafted
in paragraph 5.2 of my primary statement of evidence. This is reflected in the revised
draft CLMP attached to this rebuttal evidence.
6.2 In my opinion, the changes made from version C to D of the CLMP are appropriate.

America’s Cup Infrastructure Works
Due to the constrained construction programme and site constraints, some construction works may be undertaken 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
All night works that require the use of artificial lighting shall be managed in accordance with the lighting management measures outlined in this CLMP.
Construction Methodology
The construction methodology for the Project is summarised as follows with further detail provided in the CEMP:
Construction of Wharf and Wave Break Structures
Installation of piles into the seabed using piling plant positioned on existing wharf
structures or floating barges.
Installation of precast elements (headstocks, deck planks) using cranes positioned on
existing wharf structures or floating barges.
Construction of in-situ wharf deck slab.
Wynyard Point Works
Land disturbance at Wynyard Point, involving ground improvements, excavation and
filling.
Construction of in-situ raft foundations for syndicate bases.
Construction of pavement for syndicate base front yards and rear car parks.
Installation of street furniture and other landscaping works.
Utilities Installation
Installation of under wharf ducting and brackets for power, sewer lines and water mains.
Installation of buried service ducts at Wynyard Point, Halsey Street, Daldy Street and
corner of Quay Street/Hobson Street.
Wynyard Wharf Wynyard Wharf Infill and associated works to Wynyard Wharf
Dredging Dredging of the seabed with a long reach excavator positioned on a floating barge.
Dredged material is placed in an adjacent dump barge and transported from the dredge
site.
Work areas operating at night time will be fully illuminated by artificial lighting, primarily consisting of tower lights and plant mounted flood lights. Refer to Appendix A for the construction lighting plan showing the location of construction areas and likely types of construction lighting to be used. Section 4.5 provides further detail on the construction lighting typologies.
Sensitive Receivers / Receiving Environment
Construction lighting can result in adverse effects on sensitive receivers and the receiving environment, including effects associated with lighting spill, changes to sky viewing conditions and glare that can disable or distract motorists.
Light sensitive areas for the Project comprise the following with direct views of the Project area:
2951
Wynyard Edge Alliance |Construction Lighting Management Plan Rev D | September 2018 Page | 5
Adjacent dwellings in apartment buildings (including permanent or temporary accommodation with kitchen facilities as more fully defined in the Auckland Unitary Plan Operative in part (AUP);
Public roads within and adjacent to the event site where motorists;
Adjacent hotels (the Hilton, Park Hyatt, Sebel and M-Social); and
Commercial outdoor dining areas along North Wharf and Prices Wharf directly fronting the Waitemata Harbour.
More distant viewing locations in relation to Project construction lighting or glare may include the residential areas of St Mary’s Bay and Stanley Point on the North Shore, though the separation distance is likely to render potential glare effects negligible.
Refer to Appendix A for a plan of the surrounding light sensitive area in relation to the construction works and likely construction lighting requirements.

Wynyard Edge Alliance |Construction Lighting Management Plan Rev D | September 2018 Page | 6
Construction Lighting Requirements
Auckland Unitary Plan
Section E24 of the AUP sets artificial lighting illuminance limits that apply at dwelling boundaries and windows. These limits are dependent on the amount of light the dwelling is receiving in its original (existing) environment, as well as the time of the day.
Figure 4-1 and Table 4.1 show how sensitive receivers in the vicinity of the Project are classified in accordance with the AUP.
Figure 4-1: Lighting Category to Table E24.6.1.1

Location AUP Zoning AUP Lighting Category
North Wharf Promenade Through To Quay St. Business City Centre Zone Category 4 (high brightness)
Marine Construction Area General Coastal Marine Zone Category 2 (low brightness)
Princes Wharf Residential Apartments General Coastal Marine Zone Category 2 (low brightness)
Note: a structure built within the coastal environmental Princes wharf is shown as ‘General Coastal Marine Zone’ on the AUP maps. However, land use on the wharf includes residential apartments, hotel accommodation and commercial (offices, hospitality etc.). All surrounding land within the Wynyard, Eastern

Viaduct and Downtown Precincts is zoned ‘Business City Centre’, which is Category 4 (high brightness’ as outlined in Table 4.1).
The allowable illuminance of artificial lighting, as measured at the boundary of the affected dwelling or at the window of the affected dwelling, is summarised in Table 4.2 and Table 4.3.

10pm – 7am 1 lux 2 lux 4 lux
Initial Assessment
An initial assessment of construction lighting for the Project, detailed in the America’s Cup Physical Infrastructure Technical Report for Resource Consent Application, Wynyard Hobson (Beca, April 2018) indicates that the residential dwellings on Princes Wharf are likely to be the most sensitive to construction lighting required for night works.
Preliminary estimates of light spill at Princes Wharf indicate that the AUP illuminance limits will not be exceeded if zero tilt luminaires mounted on 10m to 16m tall masts are used. The assessment also notes that effects on motorists will be reduced through the use of zero tilt luminaries and due to shielding effects from existing developments around Wynyard Point and the wider Wynyard Quarter.
Guidance Principals
All construction lighting shall be installed and operated in accordance with the following principals adapted from AS4282-1997 Control of the obtrusive effects of outdoor lighting:
1. Adequate lighting must be installed to provide a safe work environment.
2. It is noted that AS4282-1997 and the America’s Cup Physical Infrastructure Technical Report (Beca, April 2018) recommend the use of luminaires with asymmetric light distribution. However, construction lighting available in New Zealand is seldom equipped with such luminaires, therefore, the Project shall mitigate light spill and glare by minimising tilt. This will achieve the same outcomes.
3. Mount flood lights high and aimed downwards to minimise light spill (Figure 4-2, overleaf).
4. Switch off lights when not required for work activities or for safety reasons. This will minimise reflected light (a major cause of sky glow effects), which is dependent on surface properties and difficult to control.
3 AUP Table E24.6.1.2
4 AUP Table E24.6.1.3
2954
Wynyard Edge Alliance |Construction Lighting Management Plan Rev D | September 2018 Page | 8
5. Do not ‘over’ light or use more light than necessary for safety and work activities. This will also minimise reflected light as outlined above.
6. Plan ahead for night works so that the required temporary lighting resources can be allocated for the works.
7. Keep stakeholders updated with notices of upcoming night works.
Figure 4-2: Mount construction lighting high and aim downwards (source: AS4282)
In addition, to the above, construction lighting required for the Project shall be managed so as not to interfere with any existing navigation or safety lighting within the coastal marine area, or create any new navigational or safety issues. The management of construction lighting required for night time works in the CMA shall be addressed in the Navigation Safety Management Plan (NSMP) for on-water construction activities (required by consent Condition 46A) that will be provided to the Auckland Harbourmaster for approval prior to the commencement of construction.
Planning For Night Work
Planning is key to ensure that and appropriate construction lighting is available for night works and that receptors who may be affected by construction lighting illuminance are notified prior to the works being undertaken (refer to Section 7 of the CEMP for detail of the Project stakeholder notification procedures and the permit to notify process). The following matters shall be included in night works planning documents:
1. Identification of sensitive receptors and other stakeholders potentially affected by construction lighting illuminance as a result of proposed night work.
2. Notification of sensitive receptors and other stakeholders potentially affected of the proposed night works (refer to the CEMP for the permit to notify process to be followed to provide notification to any potentially affected stakeholders).
3. Confirmation of the number of tower lights and supplemental lighting required for the proposed night work.
4. Provide for a safe means of access to reach lights mounted in elevated positions so they can be aimed correctly or shielded to reduce outward light spill or glare.
5. Allow time to conduct a ‘drive-by’ or ‘walk-by’ around sensitive receptors for visual inspection of the lighting when operational.
2955
Wynyard Edge Alliance |Construction Lighting Management Plan Rev D | September 2018 Page | 9
Types of Construction Lighting
As outlined in Section 4.2, the Project construction lighting assessment5 recommended the use of zero tilt luminaires mounted on temporary lighting poles, 12-18m high, in order for the contractor to use a smaller number of lights to illuminate a larger area. However, zero tilt luminaires are not readily available in New Zealand.
Mobile tower lights will be used as the primary source of construction lighting, as outlined below. The author of the construction lighting assessment has confirmed to the Alliance that the use of tower lights is appropriate, providing they are aimed downwards and only used in the immediate work area to minimise light spill and glare to the surrounding area and receivers.
4.5.1 Tower Lights
The primary source of construction lighting during night works shall be provided by portable tower lights. These are easy to move around the site, use their own generator and readily available to rent, as the demand for night work and lighting requirements change during the Project.
The portable tower lights commonly available in the New Zealand market are typically between 8 m and 10 m tall. If taller towers are required, an alternative is to mount lights on temporary scaffold towers, which can be made as tall as needed. However, scaffold towers are not easily relocatable, require a power source and take longer to erect and dismantle.
Therefore, all primary construction lighting shall be based on portable tower lights with a mast height between 8 m and 10 m tall.
An example of a typical set up is shown in Figure 4-3.

Figure 4-3: Commonly Available Tower Lights
4.5.2 Plant Mounted Flood Lights
A range of construction equipment will be used on the Project, some examples are:
Mobile or crawler cranes.
Excavators.
Piling rigs.
These usually have flood lights mounted on them and are useful in supplementing the tower lights to provide for more targeted illumination of specific work areas.
In keeping with the guidance principals outlined in Section 4.3, flood lights mounted on more or less permanent structures (e.g. operator’s cabin, crane boom, counterweights, etc.) shall be aimed downwards to minimise light spill. Where this is not possible, material such as a shade sail, shall be used to shield light spill. Refer to Figure 4-4.
For excavator boom mounted flood lights, where the light direction changes with the rise and fall of the boom, light spill and glare cannot be easily managed. However, land based excavator activities undertaken at night time will be restricted to Wynyard Point where there are no sensitive receptors in proximity to works.
For marine dredging, the long arm excavator will be working nearer to the sensitive receptors (refer to Figure 4-5).Excavator operation shall be in accordance with the following management measures to minimise light spill and glare during these works:
2957
Wynyard Edge Alliance |Construction Lighting Management Plan Rev D | September 2018 Page | 11
The excavator shall be positioned towards the south-east with its boom positioned downwards (top image in Figure 4-5).
The spoil barge adjacent to the excavator shall be positioned to the excavator’s north-west, so that the excavator will slew around and boom up towards the north-west (Figure 4-5 – bottom image).
Working in this manner, will reduce the amount of time the boom lights are facing south-east towards sensitive receptors.

4.5.3 Lighting on Marine Plant
Barges and other floating plant will likely have the following lights:
Navigation lights - small red and green beacons that light up when the vessel moves. These lights are bright enough for the vessel to be seen after dark but are not considered a source of nuisance.
Deck lights – required for activities being undertaken on a vessel and for the crew to move about safely. These lights shall be mounted in an elevated position (e.g. sides or top of office) with lights aimed downwards.
As outlined in Section 4.3, lighting on plant operating in the coastal environment shall be managed so as not to interfere with, or create any new navigation or safety issues. Refer also to the NSMP for further detail.
4.5.4 Lighting from Construction Vehicles
Lights on construction / site vehicles are essential for safe vehicle movements and traffic management. However, the following measures shall be implemented to minimise adverse effects on surrounding sensitive receivers associated with lighting and glare from construction vehicles.
Headlights shall be dipped to minimise glare.
Switch headlights off whenever a vehicle is parked, or whenever they are not needed for safe vehicle movements.
Switch turn signals or hazard lights off whenever these are not needed for safe vehicle movements or traffic management.
Do not use vehicle headlights for illuminating the work area, construction lighting used on site shall be as outlined in this CLMP.
As far as possible, prior to night work, plan traffic routes / movements to minimise the movement of site vehicles close to sensitive receivers.

Wynyard Edge Alliance |Construction Lighting Management Plan Rev D | September 2018 Page | 13
Mitigation And Management
Training
During the Project inductions, construction staff shall be made aware of the following:
The location and nature of sensitive receptors / environments within and around the Project area.
Guidance principals for construction lighting.
The types of construction lighting permitted on the Project.
The expected level of planning around construction lighting on this Project.
Construction plant will generally be hired by the Alliance. As such, the Project’s CLMP shall be provided to sub-contractors and suppliers so they are aware of the Project’s construction lighting requirements and plant mounted lighting can satisfy the requirements outlined in the plan prior to coming to site.
Refer to section 5.3 of the CEMP for further details on the Project induction and staff training.
Complaints Response
Refer to the CEMP for details of complaints management. Any complaints regarding lighting will be dealt with via the Project complaints management process.
Monitoring
Details covered in the planning for night works document (refer Section 4.4) regarding construction lighting shall be reviewed by a competent lighting designer to ensure compliance with the AUP, and communicated to the construction crew during pre-start meetings prior to night work being undertaken. Pre-start activities and plant maintenance must include inspection of mounted lights to check that they are aimed or shielded correctly. Records of these checks shall be maintained in a site diary and available for review by the Alliance Construction Environmental Manager and Auckland Council on request during the course of construction.
