Our Streams

Streams, places and processes

We have piloted analytical and practical steps in the Pūkorokoro catchment, and can offer those learnings about various options to the wider catchment areas.

WFCG as a whole can continue to operate in conjunction with our partners to assist with matters such as funding efforts and scientific advice as we progress.
