There is a local call to help save the Waikanae River from what many see as a serious threat from proposals to construct a river recharge scheme designed to supplement the introduction of water meters. KCDC currently has an application before the Greater Wellington Regional Council to take water from the Waikanae River.
Local groups are urging those opposed to the scheme to take five minutes now and make a difference for generations to come.

2. Print a submission form
3 Oppose the application
4. Post as directed and before 19 December
5. Pass this information on to other concerned residents of Kāpiti.
