Hydrant flushing in Mōkau - 14 March 2023

10 Mar 2023, 8:34 AM

We’ll be undertaking hydrant flushing in Mōkau on Tuesday 14 March 2023, from the southern end of Mōkau, including south of the bridge.

This will commence around 9am.
During this time, we’ll make every effort to minimise the impact on supply.
Please – flush your house water by opening your taps and run for about 2-5 minutes. This will remove the suspended solids created during water flushing.

Thank you for your co-operation.
