Repair and removal crews are clearing slips across SH2 between Napier and Wairoa at several sites between Raupunga and Tangoio.
They are also clearing a section of the highway affected by a dropout in the Sandy Creek area near Tutira. Temporary speed restrictions and stop-go signalling is in place at the slip sites while a temporary traffic light system has been installed around the dropout zone. Motorists can expect some delays.
On SH5 between Napier and Taupo slip work is being carried out at sites between Eskdale and Tangoio and temporary speed restrictions are in place, with similar restrictions along parts of SH38 between Frasertown and Waikaremoana, which was also hit hard by slips.
At the Glencoe Gorge on SH50 there was a dropout and a temporary give way control is in place, although travel delays would be only slight.
Contractors are also carrying out seal-widening projects on the northern stretch of SH2 around Kotemaori and between Te Hauke and Te Aute on the southern stretch of SH2, and there will be occasional delays due to stop-go signalling and speed restrictions.

A resident of Whirinaki, just north of Napier, Glen Kohlis, noticed a discoloration in the sea on Saturday. He reported this to Hawke's Bay Regional Council and contacted the Pan Pac timber mill, which he believed likely to be responsible as he knew it's wastewater pipeline was in the vicinity.
It was initially thought to be an algal bloom but on Sunday it was confirmed to be wastewater from the mill's wastewater treatment plant. On Monday the mill's managing director Doug Ducker sent a letter to residents living nearby advising them that a section of pipeline "has sustained some form of damage or deterioration with small amounts of wastewater escaping". Divers were investigating the extent of the pipeline damage and "we recommend avoiding the area as divers continue to assess the situation using various equipment," he said.

I went to the movies today. While standing in line to buy a ticket I noticed a sign on the ticket booth window that indicated I was eligible for a senior discount. For some reason I was surprised. I don't know why. I'd been eligible for quite some time, but until that moment I'd never once considered availing myself of this somewhat dubious perk. Anyway, I jokingly pointed out to the young girl in the ticket booth that I was indeed old enough to be treated as a senior. She nodded and proceeded to give me the discount. I asked if she wanted to see proof of age. She glanced at me, shrugged and said, "Nope." The movie was a comedy, but I was in no mood to laugh. I just sat there and sulked until I fell asleep.
