Description: About Waiora Northland WaterWaiora Northland Water is all about working together to better manage our region’s precious freshwater resources. It brings together both existing and new Northland Regional Council work to improve the quality and management of our lakes, rivers, aquifers and wetlands.New government requirements for managing freshwaterAlongside the council’s existing work on water quality and water use, Waiora Northland Water encompasses new government requirements for managing freshwater.Under the National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management 2014, regional councils will collaborate with communities to set goals and standards for managing freshwater resources. You can read this policy statement on the Ministry for the Environment’s website: http://www.mfe.govt.nz/rma/central/nps/freshwater-management.html We initially focus on first priority catchments and outstanding waterbodies, and then move on to other areas. We will also address water management region-wide, establishing standards for Northland’s other water bodies that will be progressively reviewed on a priority basis. The implementation programme for the National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management in the Northland Region is available to download below:Waiora Northland Water implementation programme information (PDF, 829 KB)Local input on local water managementThe council is looking at our waters at a local area level and bringing together local stakeholders to help decide how they’ll be managed.On a priority basis, local catchment groups will be formed from people with a local interest in water issues. These groups will work to provide local input and recommendations on maintaining and improving freshwater in their area.Catchment groups will have nominated representatives from a range local interests – for example, iwi/hapū, landowners, industry (like farming and forestry), environmental groups, recreational users and councils.This approach brings together people with differing viewpoints and requires them to listen to other viewpoints, compromise and strive for consensus on how their local waters can best be managed for generations to come.Better integrated managementWe know freshwater quality has a major influence on our coastal environment, so we are taking an integrated approach with Waiora Northland Water. Our work to improve freshwater management will also link to our work in the harbours, estuaries and coast of Northland and that of our neighbours in Auckland.In managing our freshwater we’ll build on what works well, using region-wide approaches where appropriate and localised solutions for specific issues.For example, we’ll continue to encourage good practice and promote it through our Environment Fund. We have existing rules set out in our Regional Water and Soil Plan. We’ll introduce plan changes where necessary to update those rules and better manage our freshwater resources for generations to come.Presentation - Policy framework for freshwater managementThis Policy Framework for Freshwater Management presentation was made to the catchment groups throughout July and August 2014.Policy framework for freshwater management - presentation (PDF, 602KB)
