BOIL WATER NOTICE LIFTED - THOMPSON STREET, MOUNT COOK
BOIL WATER NOTICE LIFTED - THOMPSON STREET, MOUNT COOK

Wellington Water advises that the boil water notice has been lifted for all of Thompson Street and 77 Nairn Street, Mount Cook as of Tuesday, 17 June. 

We acknowledge it has been disruptive over the last few days. We want to thank all impacted residents for their understanding, patience, and co-operation during this time.

The public network has been flushed and tested over the last 72 hours. Testing results of the water quality over this period have come back confirming that water is now safe to drink without boiling. 

We are advising residents who have been away and are returning home to run a cold tap for a few minutes to flush their pipes and any appliances connected to the water supply. Header tanks should be drained and refilled.

Have your say on managing stormwater to reduce pollution

Wellington Water is inviting you to have your say on a draft strategy for reducing the discharge of pollution from the urban stormwater networks in Porirua, Wellington, Lower Hutt and Upper Hutt. 

The draft Stormwater Management Strategy focuses on removing contamination at source, and planning improvements at a sub-catchment (suburb or neighbourhood) level. You can read more about it here

To help you understand the strategy, ask questions and provide feedback, Wellington Water is hosting three public workshops in February, two online and one in-person as follows:

  • 14 February 11:30-1:00pm (online) 
  • 15 February 12:00-1:30pm (online)
  • 16 February 5:30pm-7.30pm at Rutherford House, Mezzanine Level RHMZ2, Victoria University of Wellington, Pipitea campus, 33 Bunny Street.

 

If you’re keen to attend, please RSVP to stormwater@wellingtonwater.co.nz by Friday 10 February, letting us know which workshop you want to attend, and we will send an electronic notification with all the necessary details.
