Collection SummaryThe Tauranga Joint Generation Committee (TJGC) was established on 30 October 1965 under local legislation as a joint undertaking of the Tauranga City Council and Tauranga Electric Power Board, with equal representation from both authorities. It developed and administered hydro-electric generation within the Wairoa River catchment, including the Lloyd Mandeno, Lower Mangapapa and Ruahihi schemes, and managed the decommissioned McLaren Falls Powerhouse. In 1991 it established Kaimāī Hydropower as its electricity-generation trading company.CreatorTauranga Joint Generation Committee
