Coastal tendering

158: Requirements of tender

You could also call this:

“Explains what you need to include when you apply for permission to do things in coastal areas”

When you want to submit a tender for an authorisation, you need to include some important information. You must specify what activity or activities you want to do. If your activity involves taking materials from the coast, you need to say how long you want to do this for and how much material you plan to take.

You also need to tell how much money you’re offering. This includes any payment you’ll make at the start and any royalties you’ll pay for taking materials. If you’re offering royalties, you should explain how these might change over time.

When you send in your tender, you need to include the required fee (if there is one). If you’re offering an initial payment, you must also include a cash deposit for this amount or provide a security that the Minister thinks is good enough. You also need to include any extra information that was asked for in the public notice about the tender.

Section 152(1)(b) has more information about some of the activities this applies to.
