Leak detection in Maniaiti/Benneydale

Waitomo District Council contractor McIndoe Group are planning to carry out water leak detection in Maniaiti/Benneydale starting this Friday, 19 September 2025.

Leak detection helps identify where there could be faults in the network and can also help determine where water loss is occurring.

The leak detection investigation will occur from 8am to 5pm and although there will be a temporary interruption to water supply, it should not overly disrupt or interfere with normal usage.

We also ask that you please conserve water as much as possible.

Piopio water supply

8 Jul 2014, 11:59 AM

Piopio Water Supply will be affected Thursday 10th July, approx 3 pm. WDC is replacing an old, leaking 100 mm shut-off valve at the bottom of Kea Street in Piopio. This relates to the ongoing search for leaks in the reticulation and the upgrading of the existing infrastructure.

A large portion of Piopio residents and businesses will be without water for a period of time until the work is completed.

WDC's contractor will work effectively to minimise the shut down of the water supply and they are working closely with WDC operators to manage the shut down period.

Flyers have been distributed in Piopio advising residents and business owners, of the planned work.
