Originated by the Department of Conservation. The Department holds inventories on wetlands: WERI database (Wetlands of Ecological and Regional Importance), Coastal Resource Inventory (including wetlands such as mangroves) and SSWI (Sites of Special Wildlife Interest). These inventories, particular WERI, form an important basis for the Department's advocacy of appropriate management of wetlands by private landowners. Conservation Management Strategies and Regional Policy Statements have provided Department of Conservation and Regional Councils with the chance to identify and state management goals for wetlands on a regional basis. Information includes size; location; land ownership; classification (hydro class, geomorphic origin, community class, dominant plant species); modifiers and threats; buffer, wildlife and vegetation values; other ecological values; cultural values; significance; and sources of information.", "summary": "", "title": "DOC - Wetlands of Representive Importance", "tags": [], "type": "", "typeKeywords": [], "thumbnail": "", "url": "", "minScale": 0, "maxScale": 0, "spatialReference": "", "accessInformation": "Department of Conservation", "licenseInfo": "" }
