Final call for environmental awards
For immediate release: Thursday 19 August 2004 A final call has gone out for nominations for an award that celebrates
the region’s environmental heroes.
Environment Bay of Plenty’s Environmental Awards close on Friday 27 August so time is running out, says coordinator

The awards celebrate people, community groups and educational organisations that are helping to improve and protect the
region’s environment. Anyone can nominate a person or organisation. You can also enter yourself.
Each category has up to three awards, with winners receiving up to $1000.
