Everyone is invited to attend this workshop, but places are limited and registration is essential.

The Collaborative Stakeholder Group, that represents you in the development of policy to protect our water, hopes to see you at this workshop, where you can:

Discussions will be on:

  • their long term vision for the Waikato and Waipa river catchments (restoring and protecting the water quality in the rivers, to achieve the community’s values and the Vision and Strategy for the Waikato River)
  • their thinking on limiting nitrogen, phosphorus, E.coli and sediment entering water, to achieve community values
  • what timeframes (or ‘targets’) could look like for achieving the limits  under different water quality scenarios 
  • potential economic, social, environmental and cultural impacts of limits under a range of water quality scenarios
  • policy options (regulatory and non-regulatory) being explored for achieving limits and targets.

It comprises an optional introductory presentation, followed by the main workshop.
