Wellington’s sprinkler ban has been lifted– but with sporadic rain forecast for winter residents still need to avoid wasting water.
The restrictions were put in place for the Hutt Valley, South Wairarapa, Wellington city and Porirua in mid-February as water usage soared during the summer months.
From Tuesday, residents in Lower Hutt, Porirua and Wellington city can again use sprinklers and irrigation systems, Wellington Water said. In Upper Hutt and South Wairarapa people can do so every second day, as is usual.
Most of the Wellington region’s drinking water comes from rivers and the Waiwhetu aquifer under the Hutt Valley. River levels fell to 90 per cent before the sprinkler ban.
Meanwhile, people in the Wairarapa town of Carterton still have to boil their water after E. coli bacteria was found in the water supply on March 12.

Are you worried about cognitive decline as you or your parent's age?

Research is showing a series of hyperbaric oxygen therapy is the best available option to improve attention span, information processing, verbal function, spatial function and executive brain function as you age.



This research article shows the results likely in people aged over 60 years. Very encouraging for those of us worried about ourselves or our loved ones.



If you are looking for a hyperbaric oxygen chamber - we have one available for a course of treatments. Very relaxing and you can share the chamber with a friend.

Treatments start at $60.



To independently monitor your progress we use our #Brain Gauge tool from #corticalmetrics. We can then confirm your progress from more than just your symptoms.

"It's often as hard to get one of these sitting down as it is to get one in flight. Welcome swallow/warou (Hirundo neoxena). The pink background is caused by the colourful pink aquatic weeds on the fresh water pond at Pauatahanui. Usually hawking in a circuit over the pond, one of the swallows rested briefly to have a good stretch on a stick poking out of the water."
