Enforcement Orders

An enforcement order is an order made by the Environment Court compelling a person to comply with the provisions of the RMA, a rule in a regional or district plan, or the terms and conditions of a resource consent. An interim enforcement order can be made where there is imminent risk of irreparable environmental damage.
