Who designed a sewerage system with pipes that run along the shores of our precious lake!!! Where else are the pipes running along the edge of the Lake. This is asking for ANOTHER spill when we were assured last year by TDC that they had it under control.
To make the excuse that is was an act of nature is rubbish. It's an act of poor design!!
Get these pipes moved away from the Lake and stop Taupo District Council from polluting our pristine Lake!!!!

How did the waste water spill impact you?

Hi neighbours,
It's been just over a week since 800,000 litres of sewage split into the lake after a water main broke off Lake Terrace.
So we were wondering, how did the spill later your day-to-day life over the past week?
