Airsheds

An airshed is a geographic area used for measuring air quality standards.

This area is used by regulators for managing air quality.

There are 21 airsheds in the Waikato region:

• 20 urban airsheds (listed below)
• the 'rest of the region' airshed, made up of the areas not covered by the airsheds listed.

These airsheds came into force on 1 April 2007. You can download maps or aerial images of the different airsheds on this page.
