It’s free to attend and it’d be great if heaps of people turned up. The events are relaxed and are about chatting and listening in small groups - you don’t have to speak in front of anyone. You’ll get to connect, share ideas, and get to know other people.

We’re running out of room for our rubbish
With only four years left until the current stage of the Southern Landfill is full, it’s time to talk about what we do with our waste next.
The Landfill is critical to the smooth-running of our city. It’s currently where we dispose of all the treated sewage sludge from Moa Point, it takes approximately 100,000m3 of waste per year and it funds $6 million of waste minimisation and recycling services every year.
We think extending the Landfill is the best way forward, but we need to check out what alternatives are around. Alternatives like closing the Landfill, building a waste-to-energy plant or using biological processes.
We want to know what’s important to you when we are considering future waste management in Wellington City.

We have been made aware of a video on social media of Titahi Bay beach with comments of suspected wastewater pollution/sewage.
We can confirm there has been no discharge or overflow event from the Porirua Wastewater Treatment Plant.
The video shows seaweed and sea foam, which is common following heavy winds.
We will be conducting tests in the area for reassurance, and will provide an update when these results have been received.

This is scheduled to take place tomorrow from 9:00am to 1.00pm.
The water will be back on as soon as possible, but we recommend you fill up some containers with water before the time above and avoid running your dishwasher, washing machine or any appliances that use water. It is best not to use water from your hot water cylinder either as the cylinder may get damaged if the water level gets too low.
When the water supply is turned back on, it’s a good idea to open a cold tap slowly and let it run for a minute or so to clear any air bubbles that may have entered the system. Air can cause the water to turn a milky colour, but this won’t affect the taste and should clear quickly.
