This means there is a ban on sprinklers and irrigation systems. You can use handheld watering devices at any time, on any day, so long as you don't leave them unattended.
These restrictions are essential to ensure we have enough water to supply the entire region. This follows the recent warm and dry weather, a significant spike in water use, and dropping river levels.

This change has come into effect due to the current summer weather pattern and predicted climate - especially within the south and east coasts of the Wairarapa Region.
Acting Wellington District Manager of Fire and Emergency NZ, Brett Lockyer says "If a fire was to get away in these conditions, it will be difficult to control, especially with the wind we have been experiencing. If it’s hot and windy, do not light a fire, even if you have a permit."
Fire and Emergency encourages all people planning on lighting fires this season to check the weather conditions. To apply for a fire permit, head to www.checkitsalright.nz......
