Our Natural Resources Plan and the Resource Management Act sets out a framework for managing the natural resources for the Wellington region. This includes rules that outline what activities require a resource consent and what activities are permitted i.e. no resource consent is required. A resource consent includes conditions to protect people and the environment. We monitor consented activities to make sure that the conditions are being met.
If you would like any information about an existing resource consent, please contact us notifications@gw.govt.nz with your enquiry and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.
