Egmont National Park Board. Taranaki National Parks and Reserves Board

Production date
1907-1990
Description
In 1875 the Taranaki Provincial Government created a forest reserve round Mount Egmont. In 1876 the Mount Egmont Forest Reserve became the responsibility of the Taranaki Land Board. As settlement spread closer, public pressure brought about the passing of the Egmont National Park Act (1900). The Egmont National Park Board was created to administer the Egmont National Park. The board held its first meeting on 26 February 1901 and was disestablished 15 June 1990.
