monitoring and annual significant activity reports. Evaluating the effectiveness of the RCP was undertaken by first examining the outputs of the plan (consents issued, consent monitoring, unauthorised incidents and non-regulatory methods undertaken). This found that the number of current coastal consents is relatively low (just over 250) and an average of 24 consents per year have been issued, varied or renewed since the RCP was made operative with most of these processed on a non-notified

represent a reasonable bench mark, or at least a starting point, for which habitats should be protected possible sensitive nearshore habitats within the TCMA: o North and South Traps. These are already identified as sensitive habitats in TRC’s Marine Oil Spill Contingency Plan (MOSCP 2012), but could be investigated further o Patea Shoals / Rolling Ground area (LINZ charts and Beaumont et al. 2013) are worth considering as outstanding habitats in terms of ecological
