✨ Freshwater Management Policy
2004 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 71 4 JULY 2014
b. Every regional council is to implement the policy as promptly as is reasonable in the circumstances, and so it is fully completed by no later than 31 December 2025.
ba. A regional council may extend the date in Policy E1(b) to 31 December 2030 if it considers that:
i. meeting that date would result in lower quality planning; or
ii. it would be impracticable for it to complete implementation of a policy by that date.
c. Where a regional council is satisfied that it is impracticable for it to complete implementation of a policy fully by 31 December 2015, the council may implement it by a programme of defined time-limited stages by which it is to be fully implemented by 31 December 2025 or 31 December 2030 if Policy E1(ba) applies.
d. Any programme of time-limited stages is to be formally adopted by the council by 31 December 2015 and publicly notified.
e. Where a regional council has adopted a programme of staged implementation, it is to publicly report, in every year, on the extent to which the programme has been implemented.
f. Any programme adopted under Policy E1 c) of the National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management 2011 by a regional council is to be reviewed, revised if necessary, and formally adopted by the regional council by 31 December 2015, and publicly notified.
