also play an important part in the regional
economy.
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
Zealand’s only hydrocarbon producing area, with the
Kapuni and the offshore Maui fields making up the
major part of New

REASONS FOR APPEAL
General Reasons
7. Climate Justice says that the proposed plan fails:
(a) to address part 2 RMA by inadequately addressing the adverse

Executive summary
Dow AgroSciences (NZ) Ltd (DAS) operates an industrial agrichemical formulating and
and drill
pipe in the hole.
Drilling fluids
Oil and gas wells may be drilled with either synthetic based mud (SBM) or water based mud (WBM). As the
names suggest, these are fluids with either water (fresh or saline) or synthetic oil as a base material, to which
further compounds are added to modify the physical characteristics of the mud (for example mud weight or
viscosity). More than one type of fluid may be used to drill an individual well. In the past, oil based muds
(OBM)
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.
Energy Resources Aotearoa Incorporated (Energy Resources)
Energy Resources filed a memorandum supporting and adopting the
Council’s submissions in all respects.
