Resource Management Act 1991

Resource consents - Streamlining decision-making on resource consents

87C: Sections 87D to 87I apply to resource consent applications

You could also call this:

"Rules for when the Environment Court decides resource consent applications"

When you apply for a resource consent, you might want the Environment Court to decide instead of the consent authority. This can happen for two types of applications: if you apply for a resource consent that has been notified, or if you want to change or cancel a condition of a resource consent that has been notified. In these cases, sections 87D to 87I apply.

If your application is called in under section 142(2), then sections 87D to 87I no longer apply to it. You should be aware of this rule when dealing with resource consent applications. It is about how the Environment Court and consent authorities make decisions.
