FINAL UPDATE - 1:30pm, 8/8

The latest samples along Hutt River/Te Awa Kairangi, Petone beach and Eastbourne beaches have returned results within safe recreational limits.

As always, we recommend that people follow advice from Land, Air, Water Aotearoa (LAWA) and do not swim during heavy rain or in the two to three days following heavy rainfall. You can learn more at www.lawa.org.nz...

The rahui placed on Wednesday evening is still in place. Port Nicholson Block Settlement Trust will advise when the rahui is lifted.

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
