regulated by local government in the form of prohibiting oil and gas
activities, would clearly subvert the distinction between policy decisions to
mitigate climate change (to be made by central government) and local level
decisions to adapt to the effects of climate change.

Exotic forest plantations continue to expand, with the
region offering a suitable climate, good forestry sites
and a well-established roading system and port facility.
The oil and gas industry is a major contributor to the
regional economy. The Taranaki Basin is currently New

REASONS FOR APPEAL
General Reasons
7. Climate Justice says that the proposed plan fails:

Area. Notably the plan:
i. Does not promote sustainable management of natural
and physical resources under s5 RMA.

ii. Does not adequately recognise and provide for matters
of
public. Most incidents relate to spills or discharges affecting fresh water. Incidents also involve air quality (odours), the coastal environment or contamination of land. Details of complaints, investigations and enforcements, and similar action arising from non-compliance detected during routine monitoring, are recorded in the Council’s Incident Register and reported to six-weekly meetings of the Consents and Regulatory Committee. Marine oil spillsThe response to a marine oil spill depends on the
monitoring surveys when the landfill has commenced operations. This report outlines all of
the consents held by the STDC, reports on the baseline monitoring activities carried out in the
2015-2016 period, and discusses these results along with the previously obtained groundwater
monitoring results.
As baseline monitoring has been undertaken for a number of years, since the 2014-2015 year,
monitoring has been scaled back to consist of the collection and analysis of six surface water
samples per
