omitted to consider material facts known to me that might alter or detract from the opinions
expressed in my evidenc!;l.
3. I have prepared this supplementary statement evidence on behalf of Motiti Rohe Moana
Trust to provide a set of matters of control and criteria for exercise of discretion under the
rules I recommended in my evidence in chief (EiC) and to provide the Policies that were
omitted due to a formatting issue.
4. Attachment 6 of my EiC set out the new provisions I recommend for the spatial plan in the
form of Motiti Natural Environment Management Area. In attachment 6 on page 6 under
12:2 Rule at Rule MNEMA 2 Controlled and Rule NNEMA 3 Restricted Discretionary I
added drafting notes: for Controlled "Drafting note: matters of control to be added" and for
Discretionary "Discretion is restricted to the following matters: Drafting note: to be added
later".
5. I now provide a deletion from Rule MNEMA 2 and text to be added to Rules MN EMA 2 and
MNEMA 3: The deletion and additions are as-follows:
1. Delete the words "and subject to Rule AQ 2" from Rule MNEMA 2 and add the
following reference to and list of matters of control. The addition takes the relevant
matters of control from Rule AQ 2 and inserts them into Rule MN EMA 2 as follows:
The Regional Council has reserved its control over the following matters:
(a) Measures to avoid remedy or mitigate the adverse effects of the
aquaculture activities activity on:
(i) Ecology
1 Dated 25 October 2017

MOTITI NATURAL ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT AREA
Background & Explanat ion:
Appeal by Motit i Rohemoana Trust Seeking Spatial Planning
Marine spatial planning applies traditional terrestrial planning techniques to the ocean.
A key component of terrestria l pla nning involves mapping to identify areas that contain attributes and values along with priorities fo r action and methods fo r management.
Mapping identifies characteristics, elements and resources and thei r values and attributes and delineat ion of areas to prioritise actions and provide management methods to achieve improved stewardship of t hose characteristics, elements and resources.
The type or fo rm of a spatial plan will vary according to aspiration, need, location and space.
A marine spatial plan may apply to Coasts and Oceans at an Internat ional or Nat ional level; to an interregional and interagency area such as the Hauraki Gulf; to a region; or pa rt of a region.
A "Marine Spatial Plan" (MSP) in the context of the Bay of Plenty Region may be prepared in accordance with protocols developed between agencies or parties to provide a means fo r achieving agreement between agencies or parties on how conflicts would be resolved, efficiencies improved, costs reduced and quali ty environmental outcomes achieved, across various legislative and regulatory regimes, at a regional level.
In the context of a Coastal Plan a "marine spatial plan" (lower case) may be prepared in accordance with the provisions of the RMA.
It may apply to the entire 'coastal environment'; to coastal marine area components of the coastal environment out to the 12 nautical mile area (ie the CMA); or to a discrete part within the CMA of a region.
In t his case the Motiti Rohe Moana Trust is seeking a "marine spat ia l plan" to apply to a specific area within t he Coasta l Marine Area, identified in the Bay of Plenty Regional Policy Statement (BOPRPS) as the "Motiti Natura l Environment Area", to apply specific objectives, policies and rules to give effect to the RMA Part 2, NZCPS and BOPRPS to ensure natural character and natural landscapes and feat ures (including biodiversity and ecological health) are restored so that the cultural values and the relationship of Maori with their ancestral lands, waters and taonga are recognised, provided for and actively protected.
The fo rms of the spatial plan currently applied in the BOP RCEP are:
• "zoning to recognise those areas where there is a high level of modification and where new uses and development may have relatively low impact"
• "Overlays are used to identify different values of the coastal marine area and trigger the application of specific policies and rules designed to manage the potential adverse effects of activities ... " (see Proposed BOP RCEP Section 5 Plan Mecha nisms - underlining mine).

MOTITI NATURAL ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT AREA
MRMT seeks t o create the planning architecture and (within that architecture) apply a spatial plan t o
rest ore natural heritage values and protect areas of significant cultural va lue within the Motit i Rohe
Moana in an area identified as the Motiti Natural Environment Area in t he BOP RPS.
The form of spat ial plan proposed is a Management Area.
Management Areas are proposed as an appropriate met hod t o achieve cult ural, intrinsic or
biodiversit y va lues recognising and providing for multi-l~yered values and the va lues and aspirat ions
of t angata whenua within an area identified for manage'n,ent.
The Motiti Natural Environment Management Area (MNEMA) is to be shown on t he planning maps
of the proposed Coastal Plan.
With in MN EMA specific policies and ru les, including sub management areas, are designed to
achieve restoration of natural heritage; protection of natural processes of restoration; and manage
effects of activit ies, particularly t he taking, destruction or damage to natural values; t o provide for
protection of natural heritage resources and t heir associated cultural values; and to provide for
public access, education and enjoyment of a self-sustaining natural environment, providing for and
preserving the mauri, tapu, mana and taonga of those having mana moana over the rohe containing t he Management Area.

MOTITI NATURAL ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT AREA
AMENDMENTS SOUGHT
Part One Purpose, content, planning framework
Amend 5.Plan Mechanisms at 5.2 to provide for "Management Areas" as a plan mechanism by amending the heading and adding a new paragraph as follows:
"5.2 Zoning, a-R€I- Overlays and Management Areas
The plan utilises Management Areas to provide for restoration, protection, maintenance or enhancement where there are resources with a high level of significance as evidenced by multiple_ overlays within an identified area valued by tangata whenua.
Management areas identify how adverse effects within areas containing two or more overlays are to be managed in an integrated manner. One of the overlays will be an Area of Significant Cultural Value.
The Management Area will trigger specific policies and methods to:
(a) Achieve restoration of natural and cultural heritage; (b) Avoid adverse effects on natural and cultural heritage values of identified significance to
tangata whenua; (c) Protect, preserve or enhance the multlplf! overlay values; and (d) Provide for activities that will avoid, remedy or mitigate adverse effects on natural and
cultural heritage values once natural and cultural heritage values have been restored.
******** Part Two Issues and Objectives for the Coastal Environment
Add a new item 12 to the list of topic headings to provide for the Motiti Natural Environment Management Area as follows:
12. Motiti Natural Environment Management Area (MN EMA)
Under 1. Issues
At ·1.1 Integrated Management
Add a new Issue 1B following Issue 1 identifying a lack of integrated management may increase adverse effects and limit the ability to restore degraded sites or coastal waters.
Issue 18 There is a need to identify areas where restoration of natural and cultural heritage is necessary in order to provide for the relationship of Maori with their ancestral lands, waters and taonga; and
to integrate the measures for restoration and protection of natural and cultural heritage in order to restore relationships of Maori with their ancestral land waters and taonga, actively protect taonga (biotic a biotic and perceptual), and to provide public access, education and enjoyment.

MOTITI NATURAL ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT AREA
At 1.2 Natural Heritage
Add a new Issue 4A following Issue 4 identifying unsustainable fishing activity as one of the reasons for loss of biodiversity values within the coastal environment as follows:
Issue 4A
At 1.12
A key contributor to degradation of indigenous marine biodiversity and habitat, and the relationship of tangata whenua have with natural and cultural heritage, is inadequate management of fishing techniques and methods. Management Areas have been introduced to manage activities to enable the mauri of indigenous biological biodiversity and marine ecosystems to be restored. Invasive activities including dredging and fishing techniques or methods need to be managed in specific areas to enable indigenous vegetation and habitats of indigenous fauna to restore naturally, to recognise, provide for and actively protect the relationship Maori have with their ancestral land, waters and taonga. The management regime wil l be specific to a Management Area. Additional management areas may be introduced in a Plan Change or Variation by way of 1st Schedule RMA process.
Add three new issues following 1.19 & 1.11 setting out the issues relating to the marine spatial areas identified as "Harbour Development Zone" and "Port Zone" as follows:
1.12 Motiti Natural Environment Management Area
lssue.53 Mot iti Island is the only continuously occupied offshore island in the region. It is t he most developed of all offshore islands. Tangata whenua have a lengthy history of traditional and continuing cultural relationships with the coastal environment of the Motiti Natural Environment Management Area where tangata whenua have lived and fished for generations. Motiti is physically and spiritually linked to Te Tau O Taitl (Otaiti) as well as toka, reefs and ot~er features identified in the Motiti Natural Environment Management Area. Ota iti is both anchor (haika) and umbilical cord (pita) for Motiti Island (Topito o te Ao).
Waahi Tapu
The Motiti Hapu Management Plan identified waahi tapu within Motiti Rohe Moana. Several but not all of these have been listed in the schedule for ASCV -25. The waahi tapu areas and buffers required to protect their intrinsic and cultural va lues and attributes are now mapped.
Management of the waah i tapu area is required to restore and protect natural and cultural heritage values, the relationship of Maori with their land waters and taonga, active protection of taonga, and to provide for public access for education and enjoyment of natura l and cultural heritage
The restoration , protection and enhancement of natural and cultural heritage, through management of any activities, that would damage destroy or remove indigenous flora or fauna, or harm the mauri, tapu or mana of the area, has the

potential to not only sustain natural and cultural heritage values, but to also generate signiflcant social, cultural and economic benefits for the wider region .
Waahi Taonga
Waahl taonga areas are identified and described in the Motiti Hapu Management Plan and several but not all the sites values and attributes are referred to in the schedule for ASCV 25. The waahi taonga areas are outside those aareas mapped as waahi tapu and their spatial extent covers the entire Motiti Natural Environment Area identified as having High or Outstanding Natural Character in the RPS.
Restoration of natural heritage is required to reinstate the natural and cultural values and attributes of the area. Activities that enable the restored natural and cultural heritage state to remain self-sustaining are provided for.
