5 INTRODUCTION Since its inception in 1991, Project River Recovery has undertaken or funded numerous research projects. The results of these investigations have been reported in various reports, theses, Department of Conservation publications, and scientific papers. Results of all significant research have been published, can be found through literature searches, and are widely available. Internal reports that do not warrant publication are held at the Twizel Te Manahuna Area Office and at the main Department of Conservation library in Wellington. All unpublished Project River Recovery reports produced since 1998 have been assigned report numbers. In addition to reports on original research, Project River Recovery has produced magazine articles and newspaper feature articles, various annual reports, progress reports, discussion documents, and plans. It has also commissioned some reports from consultants. This bibliography updates the bibliography compiled in 2000 (Sanders 2000) and lists all reports, theses, diplomas, Department of Conservation publications, and scientific papers that were produced or supported by Project River Recovery between 1991 and July It does not list brochures, posters, fact sheets, newsletters, abstracts for conference programmes, or minor magazine or newspaper articles.
