What are the issues we are facing

there are several very sensitive environments which cover the devenport peninsula. there are some highly significant areas in the Oneoneroa bay.
current sites via enviomantal conservation. then current extent.
  • WF4 - Pōhutukawa, pūriri, broadleaved forest [Coastal broadleaved forest] - not fully me
  • SA1.5 - Shell barrier beaches develop in some estuaries as long narrow ridges, which build up from wavedriven accumulations of dead mollusc shells and sand. Vegetation is often sparse, with scattered herbfield of glasswort, coastal needle grass, knobby clubrush, sea rush, sea primrose, bachelor’s button and sea blite, and on the highest ground, occasional oioi, salt-marsh ribbonwood and tauhinu (Ward 1967).
  • SA1.2 - Mangrove forest and scrub occurring in areas of frequent tidal inundation with abundant silt deposition, particularly near stream and river mouths
  • SA1 -Mangrove forest and scrub - less concern nationally.
  • UC - Un classified
  • OW - open water
  • PL - Planted Vegetation
  • EW - exotic wetland
  • WL11 - Machaerina sedgeland
  • EF - exotic forest
  • ES - exotic shrub
  • WL19 - Raupō reedland
  • SA1.3 - Sea rush occurring in the upper estuarine zone where saltwater dilution is greatest. This generally merges upslope with oioi, locally swamp twig rush, and occasional salt marsh ribbonwood (Deng et al. 2004).
  • WL10 - Oioi restiad rushland/reedland
