CMS review

DOC started a review of the East Coast CMS as part of a process amalgamating the East Coast and Hawke’s Bay into one CMS region reflecting the Conservation Board boundaries.

DOC appreciates the valuable input of our Treaty partners, conservation boards and community into this initial review.  

Until the review has been completed the 1998 CMS remains operative.
