“On Monday evening, the pump on the township’s low-manganese bore faulted and is being urgently replaced. With no water being pumped the water reservoir reserves are going down."
Mayor Beijen said he had been advised that installing the spare pump could be done within a day, but until the reservoir levels have recovered and we know the replacement pump is working well, we must conserve water.
“It’s essential that the community immediately responds to this pressing need to conserve water. If the township uses more water than we can supply from the low-manganese bore, we will have to use the other bores as well. That could mean the town’s drinking water becoming discoloured.
“Although safe to drink, the water could lose its clarity due to the reaction between manganese and chlorine – we want to avoid discoloured water if we can.
“We’re addressing infrastructure replacement as fast as possible, and this is unfortunate timing of an equipment failure,” said Mayor Beijen.
Information on how to conserve water will be shared throughout the community – you can find out more at www.wellingtonwater.co.nz...
“We will update the community when more information is available,” Mr Beijen said.

PIANO FREE FOR PICK UP.
Dark brown veneer Kemble Piano.
Kemble London. Patent no. 429809. Sole agents for New Zealand. Charles Begg & Co Ltd imprinted on the piano.
This was in the house when we bought it and just need it gone. Been sitting in the garage and will need a good clean / tune up I’m sure.
No keys appear to be broken but I don’t know anything about pianos and I haven’t had a good look at it. Giving away as is where is.
Must pick up from Stokes Valley - easy access. Drive right up to the garage and roll the piano out (it has castor wheels attached to the bottom).
I am very flexible with dates/times as am a stay at home mum.
