43F: Description of discharges in national environmental standards for discharges
or “This rule explains how the government can describe different types of pollution in their environmental rules.”
You could also call this:

“Rules can include information from other sources to help explain environmental standards.”

This part of the law used to talk about how to include other documents or materials in national environmental standards. However, this section doesn’t apply anymore. It was removed from the law on 19 April 2017. If you want to know more about why it was removed or what it used to say, you might need to look at other parts of the Resource Management Act 1991 or ask someone who knows about New Zealand’s environmental laws.
