Farmers and landowners affected by recent floods and storms may be eligible for free support from the Kaipara Moana Remediation (KMR) programme.
The government-backed decade-long restoration project focuses on working with landowners on planting and fencing to reduce sediment going into the Kaipara Harbour in Auckland and Northland.
The KMR team says after recent extreme weather events, landowners around the Kaipara have been badly affected, especially in the Auckland region.
“The road to recovery will also be a long one in some areas,” a spokesperson says.
KMR is offering to help landowners it has been working with by repairing, replacing or relocating completed fencing and planting projects damaged by the floods and cyclone.
Help may also be available for landowners working with KMR on new projects, such as ensuring fencing and planting plans reduce erosion risks and protect against future flood damage.
KMR is also connected to other agencies offering support, and may be able to help landowners seek other sources of funding.
