Resource Management Act 1991

Occupation of common marine and coastal area - Plan change requests and concurrent applications for coastal permits in relation to aquaculture activities

165ZK: Application

You could also call this:

“This law explains when special rules apply to activities in the sea and coastal areas that people share.”

This part of the law applies to specific rules in regional coastal plans. These rules must meet two conditions:

  1. When section 55 of the Resource Management Amendment Act (No 2) 2011 started, the rule said that aquaculture activities were not allowed in some or all of the common marine and coastal area covered by the plan.

  2. The rule is still in effect when someone asks to change the plan.

If a rule meets both of these conditions, then this part of the law applies to it. This helps you understand when and where these rules about aquaculture activities are important.
