Actions and activities
The Kaikōura water management zone committee was officially launched at an event on 15 July 2011 at the Fyffe Country Lodge.
The committee is the eighth to begin addressing local water issues using the goals and methods developed via the Canterbury Water Management Strategy.
Following the launch, the zone committee members met for an orientation workshop. On 26 July 2011 the committee had its first public meeting where it received a number of presentations on water issues and freshwater biodiversity in the zone.
At subsequent meetings the committee has received presentations on the state of the water in the region, cultural values, Canterbury Water targets, and the Kaikōura Marine Strategy.
The committee has also been discussing priority areas for its $100,000 of Immediate Steps funding to support on-the-ground freshwater-related biodiversity projects.
At its December 2011 meeting the committee was updated on water metering in the zone and discussed its initial priorities for water management in the zone.
A number of field trips are also planned so that members can visit areas of significance and meet with community members.
