This involves the use of current
RMA provisions to create a new freshwater policy,
planning and management regime that impacts
everything from farm practices to urban subdivision.
Implementing this regime will be the largest single
project in Council’s history.
The role of iwi
These reforms also give tangata whenua a greater
role in freshwater management by focusing on Te

Introduction
Compliance monitoring programme reports and the Resource
Management Act 1991
1.1.1
Programme is indeed an integrated, cost effective, fair, comprehensive, robust,
and scientifically-based programme designed and managed to deliver sustainable management of
natural and physical resources in Taranaki.
In September 2020 the Government released its freshwater package which included a greater
recognition of iwi values in resource management and more of a partnering role for the Council and
iwi going forward. Given this the monitoring strategy will be reviewed once

Map - Key Native Ecosystems in Taranaki.
WHAT MAKES KEY NATIVE
ECOSYSTEMS REGIONALLY
SIGNIFICANT?
Key Native Ecosystems are regionally significant
because they are:
home to nationally or regionally threatened
or at-risk native plant and animal species, or
representative of originally rare ecosystems
and indigenous vegetation now much
reduced from its original extent, and/or
important connections or buffers to other
sites of value, or provide
regulation of forestry, particularly slash
management on hill sides and it was agreed to report back to a subsequent Committee
meeting on this matter.
2.3 The recording and presentation of iwi involvement in consents was discussed and it
was noted this system was under review and related to the outcome of Mana
Whakahono a Rohe (iwi partnerships) discussions.
Recommended
THAT the Taranaki Regional Council
1. receives the schedule of resource consents granted and
but not restricted to, the Local Government Act 2002, the Resource Management
Act 1991 and the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987.
Iwi considerations
22. This memorandum and the associated recommendations are consistent with the
Council’s policy for the development of Māori capacity to contribute to decision-making
processes (schedule 10 of the Local Government Act 2002) as outlined in the adopted
long-term plan and/or annual plan.
