This page is about a bill. That means that it's not the law yet, but some people want it to be the law. It could change quickly, and some of the information is just a draft.
If you want to declare a safety zone around offshore renewable energy equipment or a substation, you can only do this after you have been given the necessary marine or resource consents. You need these consents to start your offshore renewable energy project. The safety zone declaration is made under section 63, which has rules about when and how you can declare a safety zone.
