When there's heavy rainfall, like after cyclone Gita yesterday, lots of water can end up in the wastewater network (instead of travelling through the stormwater network). This means our wastewater pump stations and treatment plants are not able to cope with the extra volume of wastewater.

This means our wastewater pump stations and treatment plants are not able to cope with the extra volume of wastewater.
On 20 February 2018, some water bypassed the Porirua treatment plant, only receiving partial treatment with UV light, before being discharged from a pipe at Rukutane Point in Titahi Bay. There were also overflows into the Porirua harbour and near Plimmerton.
We always recommend you do not swim in harbours and rivers following heavy rainfalls, for at least 48 hours.
Please note the following:
- Regional Public Health recommends no swimming in the affected area.
- Health Warning signs will be posted around Titahi Bay.

We reported the results this weekend - and they were fascinating.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it reveals our most loyal meat-eaters are in farming provinces like Southland, Manawatu-Wanganui and Taranaki, where nearly two-thirds of us eat meat most days. By comparison, fewer than half of respondents in Wellington, Auckland and Northland eat that much meat. More than a third of Aucklanders and Cantabrians say they are reducing their meat consumption; another 13 per cent have already cut it from their diets entirely.
>> So here's a question: should city-dwellers be supporting our farmers better, given they're still the backbone of our economy? Or do farmers and the rest of us need to be working together to find new solutions - new premium meats, new meat alternatives - to reflect reducing meat consumption around the world?
