The categories used by the Council for this monitoring period, and their interpretation, are as follows:
of resource users against
regional plans and consents. Compliance monitoring, (covering both activity and
impact) monitoring, also enables the Council to continuously assess its own
performance in resource management as well as that of resource users particularly
consent holders. It further enables the Council to continually re-evaluate its approach
and that of consent holders to resource management, and, ultimately, through the
refinement of methods, and considered responsible resource

land-use monitoring in the eastern Taranaki hill country and coastal sand country” by
Jessen et al. in Landcare Research (NZ) Ltd Contract Report LC9900/125.
As with the 2000 report, this project addresses the monitoring requirements associated with
management of the accelerated erosion issue in the two following areas of concern as identified in
the Regional Soil Plan for Taranaki, which became operational in 2001:
• accelerated erosion as a result of vegetation clearance in the eastern
project took longer than planned and became a much larger aspect of the project than
envisaged. As this report outlines, this work highlighted specific areas of the region
where irrigation may be viable, rather than the more general zones identified in the
Rout (2003) report. These more detailed results allow a more targeted approach to
assessing the viability of irrigation.
After re-evaluation of the locations where irrigation may be appropriate, the project
considered options for delivering
for activities to comply with the Resource Management Act 1991, and other relevant regional
and district plans. Activities within the beds of lakes and rivers may also be subject to rules in regional plans in accordance with section 13 of the
Resource Management Act 1991. Any activity occurring within the coastal marine area may require resource consent under section 12 of the Resource
Management Act 1991.
