 Councils and agencies behind 'Clean Below? Good to Go' are searching marine structures, boats and shorelines for marine pests. Here is a regional round up of surveillance programmes underway, and findings this season.
 In May 2018 New Zealand became the first country in the world to introduce a nationwide standard that sets specific thresholds for biofouling of international vessels. These strict biofouling rules, called the Craft Risk Management Standard for Biofouling (CRMS-BIOFOUL), require that all commercial and recreational vessel operators prove they have managed biofouling on their vessels before they enter New Zealand waters.
The team behind Clean Below? Good to Go is proud to present the first edition of its newsletter, sharing insights and the latest news about marine biosecurity in the Upper North Island.
While we don't want to spread marine pests, we do want to spread the word. Please help us get the message through by sharing our videos and stories with your customers, members and people you know. Whether you are running a marina or boatyard, part of an environmental group or an enthusiastic supporter of marine biosecurity, all content in here can be shared on social media, or in your newsletters and websites. |
