WATERCARE SERVICES LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2010Advisory Group ReportsMaori Advisory Group1 July 2010Ko te awa ko au, I am the riverKo au ko te awa, the river is meKia oraI want to share with you the significance of the proverb above and how it relates to the Waikato Tainui Raupatu Claims (WaikatoRiver) Settlement Act 2010 and Watercare. The 50/50 governance arrangement with the Crown is an acknowledgement of arelationship that exists between Maori and their river. “I am the river, the river is me” echoes a peoples’ lifelong commitment topreserving its well-being for the benefit of the generations to come.A traditional relationship and practice now firmly back in the hands of the Waikato people in the form of the new Waikato River Authority.This couldn’t have happened at a better time when water demands and costs are high on everyone’s agenda. Having Waikato Maori atthe decision making table gives me a great deal of confidence that water security, supply and quality are in good hands.How does this affect Auckland? Well, for close to a hundred years the Waitakere and Hunua water supply dams have providedAuckland with that all important ingredient of life, potable water. Since 2002, supply has been supplemented by abstraction fromthe Waikato River. While Watercare’s current water take consent is sufficient it will not be enough to quench the thirst of a growingsuper city in the future.On 1 November 2010, when Watercare becomes the single largest water and wastewater utility in the country, you will be pleasedto know that Auckland’s future water needs are also in good hands. This is thanks to the signing a Statement of Understandingbetween Watercare and the Tainui Maori Trust Board, a member of the new authority, in October 1998. As for the proverb itmarries well with Watercare’s commitment to help enhance the well-being of the Waikato River.So to the Waikato and its people, I acknowledge you not once, not twice but thrice.Kia oraWilliam KapeaChairmanMaori Advisory GroupMembersWilliam KapeaGary ThompsonKowhai OlsenPamera WarnerPaul BrownNorma ArlidgeDennis NgatakiTim ManukauBrownie RauwheroCarmen KirkwoodAffiliationNgati WhatuaNgati PaoaTainuiNgati WhatuaTainuiNgati WhatuaTainuiTainuiTainuiTainuiadvisory group reports19
