> We're occupying a gigantic irrigation dam construction site and are set to

> It was an unplanned rapid response. Here's what happened:
>
> Following last month's irrigation pipe action
> <https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/opinion/96043714/the-dairy-farmers-daughter-who-locked-herself-inside-an-irrigation-pipe-to-protest-dairy-intensification>,
> we began organising a mass public protest
> <https://act.greenpeace.org/ea-action/action?ea.client.id=1939&ea.campaign.id=75349> for
> the 14th Sept.
>
> Then two days ago we received a 'cease and desist' letter from the
> irrigation company's lawyers threatening us with an injunction if we didn't
> respond with an undertaking to stop organising protest action.
>
> The deadline to respond passed 12 hours ago.
>
> At the crack of dawn today, a group of people went into the irrigation dam
> construction site in the heart of dairy farming country.
>
> That was our response and organising for the 14th Sept continues.
>
> They've got tents, sleeping bags, lots of food and they're set up to stay
> put. We're also inviting people in the area to come and join us.
>
> There's a live feed action page up here:

> Workers arrived but have now left again, and the police are on the scene.
>
> We're asking people who can't get there to share, amplify, sign the
> petition and chip in to sustain the occupation.
>
> We'll be trying to get #SaveOurRivers trending to please RT or use #
> SaveOurRivers <https://twitter.com/hashtag/SaveOurRivers?src=hash> to
