Description
As a resource, air can be taken for granted. It is abundant, pervasive and available to us all. The quality of air can vary immensely depending on both environmental and human influences. When air quality is good, our ability to enjoy our environment is increased. As air quality is degraded, people and the environment can be adversely affected. There are competing uses that need to be managed so that people can transport and heat themselves and be employed while also being able to enjoy their living environment.
The purpose of the Canterbury Air Regional Plan (the Air Plan) is to identify the objectives, policies and rules needed to manage the human influences on air quality in Canterbury so that our health and well being is optimised. The Air Plan seeks to support the Canterbury Regional Council's (CRC's) non-regulatory clean air work programme with regulation that:
- Provides for the maintenance of our good quality air and improves air quality where it is degraded; and
- Enables and encourages the development and use of new technology and innovation that will improve air quality outcomes; and
- Provides for industrial and economic growth in appropriate areas, including through the adoption of the best practicable option and best practice; and
- Provides for community well being.
