You are a forestry consultant asked by the landowner, Kotahi farms, for independent advice. The date is 12 June 2018 so the NES-PF is in force. Kotahi wants to log and replant 15 ha. You’ve got one of your staff to run MPI’s ESC and fish spawning tools, so you have on hand the relevant ESC and fish spawning maps (see page 3 and 4). For this scenario the land is in the yellow zone. Your staff also got a competent person to complete the wilding risk calculator and have confirmed there will be no problem to comply with the permitted activity conditions on wilding risk.
You will need to review the information and answer Kotahi’s questions.
