Water conservation campaign

7 May 2013, 11:13 AM

Water restrictions have been lifted across the Waitomo District.

The drought experienced this summer combined with the level of water consumption resulted in the introduction of water restrictions and bans for some areas of the district in March.

Residents on Council water supply responded well to the Water Alert Level messages. Council would like to thank the public for their support in the adoption of water conservation measures.
