Commercial Fishing Regulations represent Commercial Fishing prohibitions and restrictions within New Zealand’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) as per New Zealand Commercial Fishing Regulations legislation for the purpose of Fisheries management.
Commercial Fishing Regulations in this dataset include, but are not limited to: Fisheries (Auckland and Kermadecs Commercial Fishing) Regulations 1986, Fisheries (Challenger Area Commercial Fishing) Regulations 1986, Fisheries (Central Area Commercial Fishing) Regulations 1986, Fisheries (South-East Area Commercial Fishing) Regulations 1986, Fisheries (Southland and Sub-Antarctic Areas Commercial Fishing) Regulations 1986, Fisheries (Commercial Fishing) Regulations 2001 and the Submarine Cables and Pipelines protection Act 1996. Current and historical copies of these regulations can be found online at: www.legislation.govt.nz
Also included in this layer are Fisheries (Benthic Protection Areas) Regulations 2007, Fishery Notices (including beach cast seaweed and temporary closures), Marine Reserves, Marine Mammal Protection Notices, Submarine Cables and Pipelines Protections and other restrictions.
Method of creation: The geometries of the features were sourced from the area descriptions provided within legislation or from another agency. The polygons were created by various methods, such as, but not limited to: using gazetted coordinates, snapping polygon vertices to LINZ Topo50 Coastline, relating to Aerial Imagery, appending polygons from other datasets such as the LINZ New Zealand Exclusive Economic Zone layer.
Please note: Many features in this dataset contain general inland boundaries that are not part of the defined area. Features with a value of 1 in the ‘CoastlineRemoval’ field contain general inland boundaries. This is for the purposes of reducing vertices (to improve performance) and to future proof the data from changes to the coastline (users can erase the latest coastline data from the layer). For analysis, it is advised to erase the coastline area from... |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"><DIV><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Classified as Type 2 Marine Protected Areas, Submarine cable and pipeline protection zones (CPZs) provide sufficient protection from the adverse effects of fishing to meet the MPA Protection Standard in New Zealand (Ministry of Fisheries and Department of Conservation 2008). CPZs are regions where fishing and anchoring are illegal due to the potential damage they may cause to submarine cables and pipelines which carry vital communications and energy resources and are continually patrolled by ship and helicopter. They are established under the Submarine Cables and Pipelines Protection Act 1996, administered by the Ministry of Transport. The following cable closures meet the protection standard for Type 2 MPAs: Cook Strait Submarine Cable Closure: Oaonui Submarine Cable Closure, Whangaparāoa Peninsula Submarine Cable Closure, Hauraki Gulf Submarine Cable Closure, Pohokura Submarine Cable Closure, Kawau Island Submarine Cable Closure, Great Barrier Island Submarine Cable Closure, Muriwai Beach Submarine Cable Closure. https://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/MPI::submarine-cables-and-pipelines-protection/about</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Ministry of Fisheries and Department of Conservation. 2008.
