Hurunui Water Project shareholders agree to sell resource consents to Amuri Irrigation Company
An existing irrigation company looks set to purchase the Hurunui Water Project's resource consents, ending debate about whether the local council should invest in the scheme.
A special general meeting was held on Tuesday for shareholders to vote on Amuri Irrigation Company's offer, which was made earlier this month following a poor response from farmers for HWP's water rights share offer.
"This area has suffered from the impacts and effects of drought over recent years and an irrigation scheme will bring certainty and security to those farming in the area," AIC chairman David Croft says.

The world still has some wonderful people in it even in these troubled times.
