Water alert in Hamilton

URGENT WATER SAVINGS NEEDED IN HAMILTON AFTER MAJOR WATERPIPE BREACH
Please share with friends and neighbours! Hamilton City Council is calling for all residents to urgently conserve water after damage to one of the city’s most important water mains. The conservation measures effectively mean temporarily implementing the city’s highest water alert level. A further update will be posted before 5pm today.
There are no issues with water quality but supply levels could be reduced significantly due to the damage. Alert Level 4 means no outdoor water usage is permitted, but residents are being asked to look at all water usage in their homes and businesses as staff work to repair the Eastern Bulk Main.
City Waters Unit Manager Maire Porter says it’s important for residents to be aware there are no water quality issues, it is simply that the city needs to make the available water go further.
“Until we complete this repair we need everyone to play their part. This is a time when our city can come together to help each other out and we can get through this situation as smoothly as possible.”
