Notice of Discontinued Official Geographic Names

Pursuant to sections 10(1)(d), 24 and 21(2) of the New Zealand Geographic Board (Nga Pou Taunaha o Aotearoa) Act 2008 ("Act"), the New Zealand Geographic Board Nga Pou Taunaha o Aotearoa ("Board") hereby gives notice of 36 discontinued official geographic names.
These discontinued official geographic names relate to geographic feature types that the Board does not have naming jurisdiction for, and therefore they should not be official names.
However, once discontinued, they may continue to be used, but would no longer be subject to the requirements of the Act, and the future responsibility for their naming, if any, will no longer lie with the Board.
The first column of the Schedule below specifies these discontinued official geographic names.
The geographic feature type that they relate to is set out in the second column of the Schedule.
The former New Zealand Gazette notice that they relate to is set out in the third column of the Schedule.
Details of each discontinued official geographic name can be requested in writing from the Secretary of the New Zealand Geographic Board, c/o Land Information New Zealand, PO Box 5501, Wellington 6145. Facsimile: (04) 472 2244. Email: customersupport@linz.govt.nz
The Board's final determinations on these discontinued official geographic names took effect on 29 August 2013.
