WORKING WITH OUR WATERWAYS
Farmers, horticulturalists, and lifestyle block owners – share your ideas about creating more flood resilient land and improving the water quality of the streams and rivers.
Find out more about our river catchments and discuss the impact of stream management, good and bad, on farmers, businesses, and communities downstream.
At this FREE event find out more about:
• Matakana catchment and storm frequency.
• Natural waterway processes.
• How rivers and streams respond to flooding and long-term changes in flows.
• Stages of waterway channel formation and what to consider on your property.
• Reducing flood and channel instability risks in your reach of stream and for your neighbours.
Network with others to be better prepared for large storm events.
