134: Application relating to area where group seeks customary marine title

You could also call this:

"Applying for a permit in an area where a group is seeking marine title rights"

Illustration for Natural Environment Bill

If you apply for a natural resource permit in an area where a group is seeking customary marine title, you must follow the rules in section 62A of the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011. This means you have to notify the groups, give a list of who you notified, and record their thoughts. You need to do this, or your application will be treated as incomplete. The term "applicant group" in this section has the same meaning as in section 9(1) of the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011.
