Illustration for Resource Management Act 1991

You can appeal to the Environment Court if you are not happy with a decision made by the consent authority about a coastal permit under section 384A. You can appeal if you are the holder of the coastal permit. You can also appeal if you were notified of the review under section 165ZZF and you made a submission under section 165ZZH. When you make an appeal, section 121 will apply to your appeal. You should know what rules apply when you appeal, so you can follow the right process.
