The Regional Coastal Plan provides a framework for the management of the effects of resource use activities in the coastal marine area (CMA). The CMA is the area below the mean high water spring mark out to the 12 nautical mile limit at sea. Download the full Plan and appendices here. Plan Change 1 and 2 to the Coastal Plan can be found here as well as changes resulting from the NZCPS for the removal of Restricted Coastal Activity provisions.
