Last month, the regulator announced it was reviewing management measures for recreational shellfish harvesting in the area after ongoing concerns about over-harvesting.
Two weeks ago, it started accepting public submissions on options for proposed intertidal closures and changes to recreational daily limits.
Fisheries confirmed to RNZ it had received 368 public submissions as of Tuesday morning.
Public consultation closes on the 12th of June.
