In presenting this 5th 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.
