There are a number of Horizons Regional Council water quality monitoring sites on the Waikawa Stream, with the site at the Waikawa footbridge regularly recording the highest bovine E.Coli readings in the region.

Horizons Regional Council is pleased to award funding to 39 community projects through the 2025 Kanorau Koiora Taketake – Indigenous Biodiversity Community Grant and the Pūtea Hapori Urupare Āhuarangi – Community Climate Response Fund.

Record numbers from the community worked alongside WBEG and Horowhenua District Council, weeding pest plants and planting Spinifex and Pingao.
