section 75(4) of the Biosecurity Act 1993, it has decided to amend the Regional Pest
Management Plan for Taranaki to include a new rule for land occupiers in Predator
Control Areas to control mustelids (ferrets, stoats and weasels).
The approved amendment to the Regional Pest Management Plan will declare
mustelids to be ‘pests’ and a new programme will be implemented for their
sustained control. The

A brand-new stand has been built to replace the old TSB stand, which was identified as earthquake-prone and could not be repaired as originally planned due to issues like poor ground conditions and insufficient foundation strength. While this required a reassessment of the overall budget, it also provided a unique opportunity to design a modern, versatile facility suitable for a wide range of uses, including conferences, trade shows, and entertainment events. The new stand offers more

The close hydraulic connection between the Haehanga Stream and the shallow groundwater has
been documented as observed by Regional Council Staff. Rainfall recharge to groundwater is
influenced by the hydraulic properties of the overlying soils, with the soils storage capacity the
main characteristic to determine the recharge rate. At present rainfall recharge estimates which

Find out about sector-based farm environment plans, and also the range of farm and property plans available from the Taranaki Regional Council and the new freshwater farm plans. It's considered industry best practice to prepare and implement a farm environment plan. The Council currently has no regulatory requirement for such plans. However, the Council has for many years worked with willing landholders to prepare a range of farm plans. Farm environment plans may become a requirement throughout
