Coastal, Water & Discharge Consents

Expert Support for Complex and Sensitive Applications

 
 

At Smart Alliances, we have extensive experience preparing resource consent applications for:

  • Coastal structures (e.g. jetties, boatsheds, moorings)

  • Water take and use (for commercial and/or irrigation purposes)

  • Discharges to land (wastewater systems)

These applications often involve sensitive receiving environments and require a careful balance between the client’s needs and environmental protection. Our team works closely with clients to ensure that the scale and nature of the activity aligns with relevant planning rules and environmental standards. 

 

We offer a Concept to Completion service by collaborating with our in-house architects and engineers who can:

  • Design new coastal structures (jetties and boatsheds)

  • New designs and renewals of wastewater systems

  • Provide the necessary supporting technical reports for the consent process

 
 

In addition to new applications, we also manage renewals of existing coastal, water, and discharge permits (wastewater consents), ensuring continuity of use and compliance with evolving regulations.
