5 yearly water quality and ecology SOE report covering period January 2004 to December 2013.
Author(s): Dr Sandy Haidekker
Publication Date: 1 July 2016
Publication Number: 4787
This report summarises available information on marine habitats within the Hawke’s Bay Coastal Marine Area (CMA). A synopsis of this type was required by Hawke’s Bay Regional Council (HBRC) due to a general lack of knowledge across the range of coastal habitats of which it has the task of managing under the Resource Management Act (1991). Additional objectives of the collation exercise were to: understand how various pressures resulting from land-based activities within the region may have changed these habitats; identify gaps in the information base; and, develop a strategy that could be applied to the CMA to bridge those gaps alongside other agencies (MPI, Iwi, DoC) and various stakeholder groups into the future. A GIS database collating available information on the different habitat types and their spatial extents within the CMA was also produced as part of the project. Main findings of the investigation are summarised below.
