The task between now and December 2022 was to build 454 cellular sites across New Zealand. The top 400 of those sites would service about 34,000 rural households while the next 54, which were "stretch targets" if funds allowed, would service another 2500.
In Tasman district, 20 of the proposed sites are part of the top 400: Maruia West Bank, Bainham, Creighton, Lee Valley Rd, Torrent Bay, Abel Tasman National Park, Kikiwa, Pakawau, Nguroa Bay, Glenhope, Nelson Lakes campsite area, Lake Station, Pohara, Blue Lake, Ariki, Shenandoah, Takaka, Mahana, Matiri and Parapara. Another seven sites were part of the 54 "stretch targets". They are: Puponga, Tadmor Glenhope, Awaroa Bay, Woodstock, Stanley Brook, Redwood Park and Eighty Eight Valley.
