A helicopter will be used to spray herbicide on individual wilding conifers in Abel Tasman National Park (from the Torrent River Catchment towards Onetahuti) over 2 days from 25 February to 31 March 2026.
The application area is at least 50 m away from tracks, but people heading off-track should take note.
