Warning: Wastewater leak near Hamilton's Pukete Boat Ramp
Partly-treated wastewater may have leaked into Waikato River near the Pukete Boat Ramp, so people are being asked not to swim in the area.
A broken plug on a pipe-fitting at Pukete treatment plant was the source of the problem, allowing wastewater into a pump building, then a stormwater system which leads to the river.
The "highly unusual" breakage happened late on Wednesday night and was noticed early on Thursday, Hamilton City Council said.
Signs have been put up at the boat ramp, warning people not to swim or let children play in water in the area.
