The Regional Plan: Coast for Otago (the Coast Plan) assists us in managing the resources of Otago's coastal marine area.
Coast care delves into Otago's coastal environment, offering insights into coastal features, biodiversity, and water quality. Our coastlines are beautiful, and we want to keep them that way. We manage coastal water quality from the shore out 12 nautical miles.
