Whairepo Lagoon & Taranaki Diving Platform water sampling results

Due to increasing wastewater contamination in the stormwater network that flows into the inner Wellington harbour during high rainfall events, we have increased the frequency of water sampling to daily.

The most recent sampling at Whairepo Lagoon and the Taranaki Diving Platform shows high levels of Enterococci. These areas have been determined as unsuitable for swimming and other recreational activities due to these results.

We encourage the public to protect their health by not swimming in the area and be careful about any contact with the water. We will be placing no swimming signs in the area today.

We will provide an update when the water is suitable for swimming.

You can check recreational water quality results for your favourite swimming sites on the LAWA map.

As part of the urgent works on Dixon St we’ve had a drill rig onsite, drilling to install posts which will help shape the chamber required to make repairs to the wastewater pipe and tunnel.

This afternoon while drilling and pumping concrete to create one of the posts, part of the tunnel wall collapsed into the existing void, creating a larger hole.

There was a small overflow of wastewater onto the street, which has been cleaned up, and crews are working to ensure wastewater is diverted from the area to reduce the risk of further overflows into the stormwater network and the harbour.

Sucker trucks are also being deployed to transport wastewater away from this part of the network. This will extend the amount of time we’ll have to install a temporary bypass, expected to be in place by early morning.
