Omāroro dawn blessing

The Team from Wellington Water

Yesterday morning, Wellington Water and Wellington City Council hosted a dawn blessing of the Omāroro reservoir site, marking the first phase of construction for the project that will more than double the city’s water storage. The ceremony included a traditional blessing by local iwi Taranaki Whānui and formal gifting of the name Omāroro to the project.

Wellington Mayor Justin Lester and Councillor Iona Pannett also attended. Mayor Lester shared a few words on the importance of this project for the future growth and demand as well as the resilience of Wellington City.

It was great to see members of the local community as well as representatives of Wellington City Council, Wellington Water, and contractors involved in the project make their way to the ceremony.
