Only flush the 3P's

The Team from Wellington Water

It's amazing the sorts of things we find blocking wastewater pumps.

A pager? A walkie talkie? What do you think it is?

It's amazing the sorts of things we find blocking wastewater pumps.

A pager? A walkie talkie? What do you think it is?

One thing we do know is it should not be flushed down the loo! These types of items cause blockages in the wastewater network. They can also cause blockages and damage to the pipes within your property boundary, which can cost you a lot in plumber bills to fix!

The only things that should be flushed down the toilet are the 3 P's:
-Pee
-Poo
-Paper (toilet paper that is)

Wet wipes (even 'flushable' ones), sanitary items, shampoo and conditioner bottles, diapers etc should be thrown in the rubbish bin, and phones/pagers should be taken out of back pockets before heading into the dunny.

Before that process can begin, the Terms of Reference to define the scope and purpose of the Inquiry need to be set. Sir Anand would like to hear your views on the draft Terms of Reference so we can work together to make sure we don’t repeat the mistakes of the past.

Space required for a tiny home (temporary)

Charlotte from Titahi Bay

Do you have, or know someone with, a little bit of land that might suit a tiny home?
I'm looking to set up an 8m x 2.5m home (all consented on its own trailer, with solar power) between May-September. Would love to exchange for gardening or similar, but open to paying rent if required.
