The National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management (NPS-FM) requires regional councils to set freshwater objectives. The NPS-FM includes the National Objectives Framework (NOF) which defines attributes that assists regional councils to set freshwater objectives.
The NOF currently includes an attribute for dissolved oxygen, however it applies only downstream of point sources. The difficulties associated with defining an attribute for dissolved oxygen for diffuse sources were not satisfactorily resolved when the 2014 NPS-FM was released.
The Ministry is looking for credible providers who have the capability, experience and infrastructure to deliver a research programme of this kind. They need to have a wide-ranging understanding of the critical drivers which influence the dissolved oxygen regime and the ability of management actions to meet dissolved oxygen objectives.
