Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Who is using Christchurch's water? It may not be who you think.

Pure at its source and easily obtained by sinking bores, the city's aquifer water is increasingly sought by industries including water bottlers, triggering concern from city council staff, campaigners and others that the … View more
Who is using Christchurch's water? It may not be who you think.

Pure at its source and easily obtained by sinking bores, the city's aquifer water is increasingly sought by industries including water bottlers, triggering concern from city council staff, campaigners and others that the businesses will drain residents' supply.

Leaking cylinders

Ian from Papanui

Clearly they can’t afford to compensate all those owners faced with sudden bills of $2000 or much higher, there is no way to exclude spurious claims, but perhaps they may consider allowing the ratepayers to append the bill onto their rates, to be paid off over time. Or perhaps they could tap* WaterNZ, who instigated the whole charade, for a substantial contribution. As experts in chlorination WaterNZ must have known irreparable damage to many cylinders would be inevitable.

Friends, I have 2 things to share with you.
1. Indian Newslink Community Award.
I was proud and humbled to receive an award in October for the community work in Christchurch. Almost all other awardees were from the north island, so it was quite an honour to be recognised there and represent not only Christchurch but the South Island.
The bonus was that I received the award at the hands of Blackcap Jeet Raval, also of Indian ethnicity. Attached here is the photo taken by the official photographer.

Indian Newslink is an English fortnightly published from Auckland since 1999, both as an on-line and print version. They run business awards as well as sports and community awards.

2. Lottery Committee. I have been appointed by Department of Internal Affairs on two of the Lottery funding committees, namely:
- Lottery Significant Projects Fund
- Lottery Community Facilities Fund
I was at Wellington recently to attend the first (training) meeting. There are 4 other members - 2 from DIA, 1 from Auckland (of Chinese ethnicity) and 1 from Gisborne (Maori). I feel honoured and privileged to 'represent' Christchurch / South Island at these funding committees.
