The Department of Conservation (DOC; Māori: Te Papa Atawhai) is the public service department of New Zealand charged with the conservation of New Zealand's natural and historical heritage.
An advisory body, the New Zealand Conservation Authority (NZCA) is provided to advise DOC and its ministers.[3] In addition there are 15 conservation boards for different areas around the country that provide for interaction between DOC and the public.[4]
