NOTES

1. This amendment comes into effect upon first publica-
   tion in a newspaper circulating in the infected area con-
   stituted. Its purpose is to change the status of the Declared
   Infected Area in respect of Dothistroma pini in the Land
   District of Hawke's Bay (located to the east of the axial
   mountain ranges) such that it will be consistent with the
   status of other east coast districts of the North Island.
2. It is an offence to remove plants or Christmas tree
   material (branches, etc.) out of the "infected area", if these
   are of exotic pine, Douglas fir, or larch species and have not
   been treated as specified by an authorised forest officer.
3. The "infected area" is generally the whole of the North
   Island excluding the Kaitaia Borough and the Mangonui and
   Great Barrier Counties. In the South Island the "Infected
   area" is all that land in Nelson and the Marlborough Sounds
   to the west of the Wairau Valley and the Westland Land
   District north of Harihari. Movement within the "infected
   area" is authorised with the exception that untreated exotic
   pine, Douglas fir, and larch material may not be moved
   from the areas listed in clause 2 (c) of the declaration (which
   is generally the large area lying between Auckland City and
   Wellington City west of the main mountain system running
   between Wellington and Cape Runaway) into other parts
   of the "infected area".
4. Inquiries should be addressed to the nearest Conservator
   of Forests.
   The said amendment was published on 5, 6, and 7 May
   1975 in the following newspapers:
   Marlborough Express;
   Gisborne Herald;
   Greymouth Evening Star;
