Heard about this long term vision to restore wai ora (healthy water)?
“The waters of Te Whanganui-a-Tara are central to our lives. They define the landscapes we cherish, provide life and wellbeing to all living things, including us who live in Wellington, Lower Hutt and Upper Hutt. We want to see their mauri (life force) restored - as healthy waterways and connected communities.”
- Sam Kahui and Louise Askin, Co-chairs, Whaitua Te Whanganui-a-Tara Committee
From Scoop:
Te Whanganui-a-Tara Whaitua Committee has completed its work to develop a programme to improve the quality of streams and rivers in Wellington, Lower Hutt and Upper Hutt.
Two reports for Whaitua te Whanganui-a-Tara were presented to Greater Wellington and are also being received by the three city councils in this whaitua – Wellington City Council, Hutt City Council and Upper Hutt City Council.
