Thank you for your feedback on vegetation clearance areas
In late 2020 we secured funding from the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment’s Kānoa – Regional Economic Development & Investment Unit (MBIE – REDIU), towards flood protection works to help improve climate resilience for the Ashley community and commenced work on the Ashley River/Rakahuri vegetation clearance project in early 2021.
These works are ongoing and may affect landowners on either side of both the Ashley River/Rakahuri between Ashley Gorge and the Okuku River and the Okuku River upstream to just north of the Grey River.
With the assistance of people who contacted us we confirmed the clearance areas between the Ashley and Okuku Rivers.
Work is on track, with physical clearance of sprayed vegetation in the Ashley River, downstream of Cottles Road and in the Okuku River, due to start in early April 2022.
