The Environment Canterbury (Temporary Commissioners and Improved Water Management) Act refers specifically to the Canterbury Water Management Strategy.
It states that decisions made using the powers in the Act must have regard to the vision and principles of the Canterbury Water Management Strategy.
Currently nominations for Regional Committee and Water Management Zone Committees are being sought (except for Hurunui for which nominations have closed already). People with an interest in water management in the remaining districts are being urged to put their names forward for Zone Committees.
Expressions of interest must be received on the appropriate form (downloadable from the website).
Applications for the Regional Committee are now open and must be received by Friday 2 July 2010.
