The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) is the national
leader for New Zealand’s biosecurity system, which consists
of pre-border, at the border, and post-border activities, with
the Taranaki Regional Council (among others) having a role
in the latter.
Many parties, from the government to individuals, have a
responsibility or an interest in protecting our country from
harmful organisms. Biosecurity is everybody’s business.
Pre-border control
following the end of each monitoring year. Where possible, individual consent
monitoring programmes have been integrated with the SEM programme to save
duplication of effort and minimise costs. The purpose of annual SEM reports is to
summarise monitoring activity results for the year and provide a brief interpretation
of these results.
Annual SEM reports act as ‘building blocks’ towards the preparation of the regional
state of the environment report every five years. The Council’s first, or
an occasional vagrant

even sewage oxidation ponds. In North Taranaki dabchicks can be found all
year round though not as frequently or in such numbers as South Taranaki.
These freshwater diving birds are aquatic specialists and hardly spend any
time on land. They feed, sleep and even build their nests on water. Their
floating nests are attached to emergent aquatic vegetation such as raupo,
the extent necessary in relation to this decision; and in
accordance with section 79 of the Act, determines that it does not require further
information, further assessment of options or further analysis of costs and
benefits, or advantages and disadvantages prior to making a decision on this
matter.

dioxide (NO2), are produced from natural sources, motor vehicles and other fuel combustion
processes. Indoor domestic appliances (gas stoves, gas or wood heaters) can also be significant
sources of nitrogen oxides, particularly in areas that are poorly ventilated. NO and NO2 are of
interest because of potential effects on human health.
Nitric oxide is colourless and odourless and is oxidised in the atmosphere to form nitrogen
dioxide. Nitrogen

Nitrogen oxides
Nitrogen oxides (NOx), a mixture of nitrous oxide (N2O), nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen
dioxide (NO2), are produced from natural sources, motor vehicles and other fuel combustion
processes. Indoor domestic appliances (gas stoves, gas or wood heaters) can also be significant
sources of nitrogen oxides, particularly in areas that are poorly ventilated. NO and NO2 are of
interest because of potential effects on human health.
Nitric oxide is colourless and odourless and is
on the ring plain; or how to prevent a steep face from eroding
on a hill country farm.
The Taranaki Regional Council advocates fixing these problems
on the farm before they turn into big ones, or start to have
off-site effects.
Purpose of a conservation plan
Conservation plans are formulated by the Regional Council in
conjunction with individual landowners, to deal with site-
specific problems that do not require longer-term input and
