Abstract
'This report aims to give water planners a better understanding of the needs and attitudes of stakeholders in the Howard East region. Based on the results of over 35 stakeholder and agency interviews, it informs researchers and water planners of the range of issues and concerns affecting stakeholders regarding water resources and indicates the interests and needs of specific groups to participate in the forthcoming HEWAC. NRETAS’ water planners have been consulted extensively throughout this process. The analysis has assisted NRETAS’ to finalise the membership of the HEWAC and informed regional communication and engagement strategies.' - Project introduction,
