- Further Submissions 8/7/05

|
Description |
The Plan has a range of subdivision rules applying to each of the different zones. There are also special subdivision rules, which essentially allow non-compliance with discretionary activity allotment sizes to be assessed as discretionary activities, rather than non-complying. A question of interpretation over the status of special subdivision provisions in Rural Zones has resulted in a need for the provisions to be clarified through a plan change. The proposed change is to return the Plan to a state for special subdivisions in the Rural One Zone that existed immediately prior to the Plan becoming operative. |

Plan Change 16 - Allocation of Authorisations (Marine Farming) |
Status |
Operative 25/08/11 |
|
Description |
Allocation of Authorisations - In 2005 legislation was introduced which substantively changed the way in which aquaculture is managed in New Zealand. All new marine farms are now required to be located in specifically created aquaculture management areas (AMA) or zones, with the right to apply for resource consent to undertake marine farming (authorisation) within the AMA allocated by various means set out in the Resource Management Act 1991. Plan Change 16 introduces the new chapter structure which will contain the revised aquaculture provisions in the future. The plan change also introduce new policy and objectives regarding how authorisations, or the right to apply for resource consent for marine farming within a newly created AMA, will be allocated. The plan change specifically introduces new rules which deal with the allocation of authorisations when the AMA has arisen from a private plan change. These rules will not have effect until the plan change is made operative. Plan Change 16 is a private plan change lodged by New Zealand King Salmon Limited. The plan change is the first of a number of plan changes proposed to amend the aquaculture provisions in the Plans, in accordance with the new legislation. For the avoidance of doubt this plan change does not create new areas for aquaculture, nor does it change the criteria in the Plan by which existing marine farms are managed. Plan Change 16 (Marlborough Sounds Resource Management Plan) consists of the following: Volume One Update to the 9.1 Introduction. A new section (9.1.2) which discusses aquaculture management under the new legislation. A new section (9.4A), objectives, policies and methods of implementation for the allocation of authorisations in AMAs.
Volume Two A new zone chapter (35A) for aquaculture management areas which introduces new rules regarding the allocation of authorisations in operative AMAs which arise from a private plan change. These rules will not have effect until Plan Change 16 becomes operative.

The proposed plan change seeks to further protect the Oparapara (Samson Bay) Argillite Quarries, which is currently recognised by the NZHPT as a Class A historic place. Two additional quarry sites within the Samson Bay area are proposed to be protected within the Plan, along with amendments to fix planning map errors associated with the existing Argillite Quarries heritage listing within the Plan. The proposed plan change also seeks to list the Tory Channel leading lights, and the former oil store shed associated with the lights, on the Register of Significant Heritage Resources within the Plan. The Tory Channel leading lights serve as both an important navigation tool within the Tory Channel, and as an historic reminder of local marine history. It is proposed that they are protected as a Class A heritage resource. |
