The committee will begin its monthly public meeting by offering any members of the public in attendenace a chance to have its say.

Next, the committee will discuss its workplan for the upcoming months before receiving an update on water monitoring in the zone from Environment Canterbury.

The committee is looking at how to prioritise, oversee, and provide local leadership on the actions detailed in the ZIP.

The project schedule developed by Environment Canterbury outlines to the committe how the proposed actions will be resourced to achieve its priority outcomes and address the targets outlined in the Canterbury Water Management Strategy.
