Keeping water flowing when an earthquake stops the taps

The Team from Wellington Water

Today we hosted a special event at Truscott park in Johnsonville to open the first of 22 community water stations, which form the foundation of our above ground emergency water supply network.

The Minister of Civil Defence, Hon Kris Faafoi, mayors and representatives from the four councils, (Wellington City Council, Hutt City Council, Upper Hutt City Council, Porirua City Council) were in attendance to help open the first of the community water stations, and learn more about how they'll operate.

Wellington's drinking water supply network is vulnerable. Underground pipes and reservoirs could be badly damaged in a significant earthquake and as a result some suburbs could be without drinking water for more than 100 days.

Over the past 12 months we have been working with central and local government to develop an above ground emergency water network that will supply the more than 400,000 people across Wellington from day eight following a disaster.

It’s important to remember that following a major earthquake, the first thing people rely on is themselves and their families, so storing water is a must for every household.

You should have 20 litres of stored water for every person, every day, for at least seven days. That’s 560 litres for a four-person household. You may need to store more if you have unwell people, or small children in your home.

200 litre tanks (which are easy to install) can be purchased from your local council for $105.

Ideally she wants her own space so does not want to rent a room in someone’s house. She works full time & is very responsible. She has flatted with the dog before & this went well until the owner sold the property. If you have something you think would be suitable we would love to hear from you.

Your Trees and Your Power Supply

The Electricity (Hazards from Tree) Regulations 2003 were introduced by Government to help us achieve this. These regulations state that there are responsibilities that you are required to undertake with the trees on your property. Trees need to be kept a minimum distance from power lines and Wellington Electricity will work with you to ensure this requirement is achieved.

Treescape will advise through “Cut and Trim” notices your requirements to maintain trees clear of power lines. On receipt of this advice, you will need to complete this work if safe to do so or engage a suitably qualified and competent tree trimming contractor.

For further information please contact Wellington Electricity on 0800 248 148 or Treescape on 0800 873 396 (0800–TREEWORK), or visit our website, www.welectricity.co.nz
