A message from NorthPower
From Friday 12th March to Tuesday 23rd March, the Wairua power station will be closed for maintenance.
This means that there may be an increased volume of water in the Wairua River, and it may be deeper than usual for this time of year. Please take extra care around, in and on the river during this time.
We're very mindful that we need to take care of our environment. All fish and eels will be safely relocated from the head pond and canal downstream while this work is being completed.
If you have any questions of concerns please contact us during business hours on: 0800 667 847.
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
