Updated 16:20 hrs 2 April 2007
Canterbury emergency response organisations are monitoring the situation after a major earthquake and local tsunami event in the Solomon Islands this morning.
The Ministry of CDEM, advised by its Tsunami Expert Panel, do not anticipate any significant tsunami impact in New Zealand, with waves of less than 0.5m predicted for New Zealand's west coast. Although the initial potential travel time of waves from the site to New Zealand has now passed no waves have been reported.

Canterbury harbour authorities have however advised ships in port to take precautions in case of sea level changes caused by this event.
