What is a CMS?
A CMS is a planning document which explains how DOC will carry out the purposes and aims of the legislation it administers throughout Bay of Plenty Conservancy.
It provides a ten year statement of the values, objectives and anticipated outcomes for conservation management in the conservancy. This includes management of public conservation lands and waters, conservation advocacy on land not managed by DOC and working with communities and tangata whenua.
