In 2012, the council commissioned NIWA to rank Northland lakes based on their ecological values (Northland Lakes Strategy - modified Feb 2013 OBJ REF A295857). It identified 12 lakes as being outstanding (see page 21 of the report). Shortly after, the Council moved a motion to identify and protect them as outstanding freshwater bodies, which the council intend to do through the new regional plan. Of these 12 lakes 4 were within the Pouto priority catchment. An additional 2 dune lakes were added in 2017 to the outstanding lakes feature class as a result of consultation with the community.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

The extent of the lakes were digitised from Aerial Imagery (High Resolution and KiwImage) at scales of 1:1,000 to 1:3,000 for use in the Regional Plan maps.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

Appropriate Scale of use 1:25,000<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>
