Attributes were discounted if they relate more to implementation of the method rather than being representative of the river. For example, Tangata whenua with rights of mana whenua, mana moana (often represented by papatipu runanga) may see application of this method as an expression of their rangatiratanga and a tangible means of upholding their ahi ka. Within their takiwa, they are likely to seek a catchment approach to any assessment consistent with ki uta ki tai. By responsibly participating in activities such as applying this method, they are protecting the waterways for whanau, manuhiri, kaumatua – consistent with the vision of Mo tatou a mo nga uri a muri ake nei.
