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.

Dogs need care and attention during Guy Fawkes. Simple measures will help avoid the cost and distress caused by a missing or injured dog.

  • Ensure your dog is microchipped and wearing its current registration tag.
  • Never let fireworks off close to a dog. 
  • Keep your dog indoors or in a secure place. 
  • Close doors, windows and draw the curtains. 
  • Have the radio or TV playing as background noise.

If your dog goes missing, it may be in the Pound, so please contact us.

If Animal Control impounds your dog, all costs will need to be paid in full, before your dog is released.
