Featherston and Greytown are still in a total residential outdoor water ban 🚨
This is due to demand levels remaining high, and low levels in the Waiohine river.
We need to keep demand down so no issues occur with our bores that might cause reservoirs to drop to low levels, as we experienced on Sunday 28 February.
The good news is that commissioning of an additional bore at the Waiohine treatment plant is progressing well, and once finished this should reduce the risk of this sort of event happening.
We’ll be in a position to ease restrictions when we see a sustained drop in demand, an increase in the Waiohine river level, and we are in a more resilient position with the new bore to rely on.
In the meantime please continue to conserve water.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
