Overview

The Ministry for Primary Industries - Te Uru Rākau has provided funding to the Waikato Regional Council (the Council) to support the “Clean Streams 2020” project initiative (CS2020).

The high-level concept for the CS2020 project is that where a landowner (or other co-funder) funds and constructs fencing (to an agreed standard) to permanently retire an approved riparian margin, stream, wetland or seep (and adjacent land); that landowner may be eligible for the retired area to be planted in appropriate eco-sourced native plant species at no cost to them.

This planting will be undertaken by a pre-approved “service provider(s)” subject to conditions and funding availability. The intent is that the Council will largely have an administration and auditing role, including reporting to Te Uru Rākau.

The Council is seeking service providers for Year 2 of this project (2022); to lead and be responsible for delivering riparian planting projects within one or more of the priority catchments of Northern Coromandel, Colville/Waikawau, Coromandel, Whangapoua, Whitianga/Mercury Bay, Tairua, Wharekawa, Whangamata and Otahu/Whiritoa, identified collectively as the Coromandel Zone harbour catchments. Please note that the Manaia catchment is not included as a priority for CS2020. A map of these priority catchments is provided in Attachment One.

The service provider(s) will be responsible for the following aspects of project implementation:
- Identifying potential riparian planting sites that meet the minimum eligibility criteria; (Council may also suggest opportunities as they arise);
- Directly liaising with landowners to organise riparian planting projects;
- Securing agreement with landowners via a Landowner Agreement including fencing requirements (draft template supplied and will require to be co-signed by Council);
- Propagation and/or procurement of eco-sourced native plants; and
- On the ground labour for planting.

Please refer to the Request for Proprosal for the detailed requirements.
