The area subject to the Vision and Strategy
As the Waikato River is important to all the people of the region, the
ultimate measure of this Vision and Strategy will be that the Waikato River
will be safe for people to swim in and take food from over its entire length.
The area that the Vision and Strategy applies to is the Waikato River from
Huka Falls to Te Puuaha o Waikato and the length of the Waipa River to its
junction with the Waikato River as shown in the map below. The Vision
and Strategy also applies to the activities in the catchments affecting the
Waikato River.
