Ngā papuHe taputapu miihini wai whānui ēnei mō te kawe me te hiki i ngā wai. Ka whakawhirinaki rātou ki te hurihanga pūngao miihini hei whakatutuki i te kawe, te pēhanga me te tohanga o te wai me ngā momo pāpāho. He taputapu taketake tino nui ēnei i roto i ngā mara o te ahumahi, te oranga o te tangata me te ahuwhenua.

E rima ngā mahi matua o te pūtake: te kawe wai, te tuku wai pēhanga, te whakawhiti wera hurihuri, te waipara me te rerenga wai, me te whakahaere i te taumata wai. Ka taea e ia te kawe i te wai mārama, te waipara, te wai hinu me ngā mea waikura pakupaku, ā, ka tutuki i ngā whakaritenga o ngā āhuatanga mahi rerekē pēnei i te kawe pēhanga iti, te rehu pēhanga teitei me te kawe wai tawhiti.

He whānui ngā āhuatanga tono: e whakamahia ana mō te tuku wai tuarua i ngā whare teitei i roto i ngā whare kāwanatanga, te tuku wai me te rerenga wai i ngā wāhi noho, me te tohanga wai i roto i te hauhautanga matua. E whakamahia ana i roto i te mara ahuwhenua mō te whakamakuku whenua pāmu, te hurihanga wai awa, te rerenga wai waipuke me te ātete ki te tauraki. He pai ngā āhuatanga ahumahi mō te wai tohanga wheketere, te kawe rauemi matū, te wai whāngai kohua, me te maimoatanga paru. E whakamahia ana te hangarau tāone mō te tukunga paru o te tāone, te rerenga wai ua, me ngā āhuatanga wai i roto i ngā whenua māra. Hei tāpiri, he whānui te whakamahinga i roto i ngā āhuatanga pēnei i te rerenga wai maina, te whakanui ake i te pehanga tinei ahi, me te tango tote i te wai moana, e tutuki ai ngā whakaritenga tuku wai me te whakanui ake i te pehanga o ngā taiao rerekē.
