Reporting strong chlorine taste in water to council
I was at a public meeting this week with Programme Manager of Water Supply Improvement Helen Beaumont (also attended by the Mayor and CEO of the CCC).
Helen encouraged reporting to council if residents are experiencing a strong chlorine taste in their water. (details below on how to report)
These reports will help create a 'heat map' which can be used by council
"On top of our ongoing work to reduce the impact of the chlorination, as well as flushing pipes to remove the natural organic matter that causes the smell and taste, we are managing the dose level and reducing it where we have been given approval to do so."
To report to council,

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
