Water resilience in an emergency coming soon

A total of 22 stations like this will be located throughout Wellington, Porirua and the Hutt Valley, providing 20 litres of water per person per day, from 'Day ' should a large earthquake cause damage to the region's water reticulation system.

There will be four stations in Lower Hutt (Korokoro, Lowry Bay, Days Bay and Wainuiomata) which will supply water to multiple distribution points throughout the city. You can read more about the stations here: wellingtonwater.co.nz...

The network is the result of a partnership between Wellington, Porirua and Hutt Valley councils and central government, with $6 million contributed by the councils and $6 million from the government.

Mr Bassett is chairman of the Wellington Water Committee and Mr Wallace is chairman of the Wellington Regional Emergency Management joint committee.

We will keep you posted when the first of Lower Hutt's four stations is opened and you will be able to check it out for yourself.

Keeping water flowing when an earthquake stops the taps

The Team from Wellington Water

Today we hosted a special event at Truscott park in Johnsonville to open the first of 22 community water stations, which form the foundation of our above ground emergency water supply network.

The Minister of Civil Defence, Hon Kris Faafoi, mayors and representatives from the four councils, (Wellington City Council, Hutt City Council, Upper Hutt City Council, Porirua City Council) were in attendance to help open the first of the community water stations, and learn more about how they'll operate.

Wellington's drinking water supply network is vulnerable. Underground pipes and reservoirs could be badly damaged in a significant earthquake and as a result some suburbs could be without drinking water for more than 100 days.

Over the past 12 months we have been working with central and local government to develop an above ground emergency water network that will supply the more than 400,000 people across Wellington from day eight following a disaster.

It’s important to remember that following a major earthquake, the first thing people rely on is themselves and their families, so storing water is a must for every household.

You should have 20 litres of stored water for every person, every day, for at least seven days. That’s 560 litres for a four-person household. You may need to store more if you have unwell people, or small children in your home.

200 litre tanks (which are easy to install) can be purchased from your local council for $105.
