Police said they believe these people may be able to help with enquiries into a breach of the cordon on Wednesday 11 February and Sunday 15 February.
“If you are one of these people, or you recognise them, please update us through 105 either online or over the phone.”
On Wednesday morning police said a man had also been arrested after allegedly breaching the cordon and charged with breaching the Civil Defence Emergency Management Act, as well as careless driving.
The cordon has been in place since the deadly landslide that killed six people at a campground in January.
Tauranga City Council said it aimed to lift part of the temporary road cordon around the Mt Maunganui landslide around lunchtime on Thursday.
Information can also be provided anonymously through Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.
