Blue Endeavour decision appealed seeking changes to conditions
The Department of Conservation (DoC) has lodged an appeal seeking changes to
the conditions imposed on the Blue Endeavour consent. Should those changes
be made, DoC has signalled that it does not oppose the granting of the
consent of the Blue Endeavour application.
Following a hearing in Blenheim which started last year, Marlborough District
Council announced on November 11 the decision by three commissioners to
approve New Zealand King Salmon's application to farm in the open ocean.
NZKS will be heading into mediation with DoC and any other interested parties
in the New Year.
The company is unaware of any other appeals, or parties intending to appeal.
