Development Authority together with
the Kaneae Kakariki Trust is undertaking
the project. The second project is
another multi year initiative by NIWA
and the Waikato-Tainui Endowed
College regarding tuna (eel) restoration
in the lower river. We are looking
forward to these major projects making
a positive impact on the health and
wellbeing of the river.
In presenting this 4th Annual Report
of the Waikato River Authority we
again acknowledge the support and
commitment from the five Waikato
River iwi and the special working
relationship between the Authority and
the Waikato Regional Council. Working
together ensures that the challenging
task of cleaning up the Waikato River
is achievable.
As the Waikato River Clean-up Trust,
the body responsible for the allocation
of funding for projects, was formed
at the same time as the Waikato River
Authority (which is the sole trustee of
the Waikato River Clean-up Trust), this
Annual Report therefore includes the
affairs of both the Clean-up Trust and
the Authority.
Teenaa koutou, teenaa koutou, teenaa
koutou katoa.
