A moderate earthquake of between magnitude 7.3 and 7.4 on the Richter
scale occurred a short time ago near the Auckland Islands.
The Director of the Ministry of Civil Defence & Emergency Management,
John Hamilton, said that there is nothing yet to suggest that a tsunami
of any size has been generated.
The GNS Science convened tsunami expert panel and NIWA scientists are
monitoring and assessing information about the earthquake and sea
level movements.
As a precaution, the Otago and Southland Civil Defence Emergency
Management groups have been advised.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre (PTWC) in Hawaii has stated that there
is no risk of a Pacific-wide tsunami but a small local tsunami could in theory
be generated.
“We will provide updated information as it becomes available,”
Mr Hamilton said.
