An MP is demanding an explanation for a fine of nearly $17,000 imposed on a Waikato farmer for removing weeds from his own land.
NZ First's Richard Prosser says Waikato Regional Council prosecuted Okoroire sharemilker Bas Nelis, a farmer who had previously won environmental awards.
"He was raided by six council investigators and the police because he was clearing a gully of pest plants before replanting it with natives," Mr Prosser said on Wednesday.
"His environmental work has resulted in a $16,875 fine under the Resource Management Act for unlawful use of land and disturbing a riverbed."
Mr Prosser says he's writing a "please explain" letter to Local Government Minister Paula Bennett.
"There's genuine anger in the Waikato from farmers, former and current councillors, as well as from Federated Farmers," he said.
"That tells me the council has stuffed up big time."
The fine was imposed by Environment Court Judge Melanie Harland.
She acknowledged in her decision the previous environmental work carried out by Nelis, but also said he should have known better because of that.
Council chief executive Vaughan Payne described the case as "difficult and unusual," Fairfax reported at the time.

Farmer `fined for weeding his own land'

SYDNEY--U.S. President Barack Obama has signed into law legislation clearing a land-swap deal that will underpin the proposed US$6 billion development of one of the world's largest untapped copper deposits, Rio Tinto PLC (RIO) said Monday.
The Resolution copper project in Arizona, which is 55% owned by Rio and 45% by partner BHP Billiton Ltd. (BHP.AU), is expected to be one of the next major investments for London-based Rio Tinto. In recent years, Rio Tinto has relied on another commodity--iron ore--for the bulk of its earnings.
The controversial land-swap deal--first proposed nearly a decade ago, and which Rio said it needed for the project to be commercially viable--allows for the exchange of 2,400 acres of land around the deposit owned by the U.S. government for 5,400 acres of privately owned land held by Rio Tinto subsidiary Resolution Copper.
"Passage of the land exchange at Resolution will help us establish the full potential of the resource and provides a clear road map to commercial development," Rio Tinto copper chief executive Jean-Sebastien Jacques said in an emailed statement.
Mr. Jacques said the copper market outlook is strong and that Rio aims to ensure it is able to capitalize on future demand for the metal, used widely in construction and manufacturing. "Resolution is a central component of our copper strategy and we are willing to invest in development over many years to bring high-quality, long-life copper assets into production," he said.
Rio Tinto says the deposit is the third-largest known undeveloped copper resource in the world. The project will now be subject to a comprehensive environmental and regulatory review process, it said.
Native American representatives groups, including the National Congress of American Indians, have argued the federal land in the Tonto National Forest is a place of worship for the Apache and Yavapai people, and is home to ancient settlements and burial sites.
According to the project website, Rio Tinto expects to be producing copper from the deposit--which is nearly 7,000 feet deep, or five Empire State Buildings below the Earth's surface--in the mid-2020s.
The site could produce around 500,000 metric tons of copper a year, according to the website. Output at that level is enough to meet one-quarter of annual U.S. copper demand, said Rio, which estimates the resource could last for more than four decades.

SULAYMANIYAH, IraqFew parts of the world look more hostile to big cats than the rugged wilderness that flanks the northern Iran-Iraq frontier.
Laced with land mines and roamed by packs of dedicated poachers, it's an environment seemingly calculated to imperil even the most fleet-footed animal. Yet this is the place the world's largest leopard calls home.
Once spread across the Caucasus region, Persian leopards now are relegated to this former war zone, along with a few isolated pockets of rural Iran. Here, hundreds of thousands of Iranian and Iraqi soldiers bludgeoned one another to death in some of the late 20th century's most brutal battles. Even today, border guards patrol the once fiercely contested high ground.

But through it all the leopard has endured, and oddly enough, the region's violent past has contributed to its survival. As part of the decade-long conflict, Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein and his Iranian counterparts planted an estimated 20 million to 30 million land mines in the 1980s. Two decades after the last of the big minefields were laid, the explosives continue to maim and kill local residents.
But the mines also have become accidental protection for the leopards, discouraging poachers from entering certain areas.
And now interest in clearing the land mines throws into sharp relief the conflict between human and wildlife interests. Iraq's semiautonomous Kurdistan region is developing swiftly, and along with that comes hot pursuit of oil and gas depositsmany of which lie in leopard-heavy highlandsto fuel its likely bid for independence.
Conservation efforts have struggled to gain traction in large swaths of the Middle East. As in many developing regions, the welfare of the environment is a distant consideration amid economic peril and political flux. But the emergence of the Islamic State jihadist group, which now controls swathes of Syria and Iraq and which was recently camped on Iran's doorstep, has pushed the plight of the Persian leopard even further from local decision-makers' thoughts.
That's why the region's conservationists now find themselves in the not-so-comfortable position of opposing some land-mine clearance efforts. Clearing the way for people to return to those areas could put the leopards back at humans' mercy, they say. (Read about how Mozambique is clearing land mines.)
"Environmentally speaking, mines are great, because they keep people out," said Azzam Alwash, head of the conservation group Nature Iraq.

Tasmanian farmers have won over the federal government, which will lift a ban on broadscale private land clearing before it has even begun.
In a deal between federal and state Labor governments, private landowners were limited to clearing 20 hectares over five years, which was down from a cap of 40ha a year.
The measure, due to commence in January, has been delayed for at least a year, Liberal senator for Tasmania Richard Colbeck confirmed on Thursday.
"I have spoken with Tasmanian farmers who raised concerns about the negative impact the land-clearing ban would have on their businesses, potentially impacting their ability to expand and take advantage of new opportunities," he said.
The move follows a deferral request by the Tasmanian government, which wants to review the state's forestry protection measures.
The "backflip" signals a new level of chaos in forest management, Greens senator Janet Rice says.
"Without the broadscale clearing ban, we can wave goodbye to rare and threatened forest types found in dwindling pockets around the state," she said.
Environmental groups have condemned the review of the state's biodiversity legislation for neutering the office of environment.
Local bodies composed mainly of farmers and planning bureaucrats would be given new powers to manage vegetation clearing in a controversial proposed overhaul of NSW environment laws.
A host of environmental groups, including World Wildlife Fund and the National Parks Association, condemned the review of the state's biodiversity legislation for neutering the office of environment and say it will lead to wide-scale land clearing and loss of species.
The review, led by former productivity commissioner Dr Neil Byron and released on Thursday, recommends repealing the Native Vegetation Act and two other laws in favour of a single piece of legislation governing the protection of native species, national parks and wildlife.

The NSW Farmers Association welcomed the proposal but said it would be watching how much of it was adopted by the government.
"If you're going to repeal three acts and have one you would think there's scope to reduce red tape," said Mitchell Clapham, chairman of the organisation's conservation and resource management committee.
Under the plan, regulations for managing and enforcing regular vegetation clearing would be overseen by the planning department and "local land services", local regulatory bodies composed mostly of farmers.Any changes would require the consent of the environment minister.
Development of previously uncleared land would be managed like a regular development proposal by the planning department and local councils.
