Oral history project in response to Project Aqua, a proposed $1.2 billion hydro-scheme by Meridian Energy Ltd on the Waitaki River, announced in 2001. Project Aqua would have diverted 73 per cent of the water in the lower Waitaki River into a 63 kilometre canal housing six power stations. The hydro project was ultimately cancelled in 2004. The collection contains seven interviews with a cross-section of the community, including those for and opposed to the project, and others who played representative and negotiating roles.
