Moratorium to be placed on Ruataniwha Dam

Moratorium to be placed on Ruataniwha Dam http://www.nzherald.co.nz/hawkes-bay-today/news/article.cfm?c_id=1503462&objectid=11766799
The voting public of Hawkes Bay have spoken.
For some reason DOC's appeal to the Supreme Court is continuing to go ahead, with DOC more or less arguing that it should be able to treat Specially Protected Land as if it's Stewardship Land without having to demonstrate that the Specially Protected status isn't deserved. Even if there's no dam, there could still be implications to come for the protected status, or not, of conservation land throughout New Zealand.
