Get involved in local water management
If you want to help deliver the community’s goals for water, then join your local water zone committee now.
Canterbury’s water zone committees are looking for new members to help ensure new perspectives are reflected.
The committees are currently focused on improving freshwater quality and biodiversity values, protecting drinking water supplies, encouraging sustainable farming practices, and enhancing recreational opportunities and cultural values.
The committees are looking for people who can see others’ points of view and work collaboratively to find solutions for water challenges.
