Waimarie o Whatitiri Marae Trust

Project Waimarie

The focus of this research is the monitoring of surface and ground water which is under pressure by the increased use of bores along the Waipao River. The research will also monitor invertebrates, fish and tuna numbers at traditional eel gathering sites. This information will be gathered from kaumatua and will provide information on better land management techniques in relation to freshwater.
