Is your water supply on the list?
More than 8000 people living in the Taupō district, and hundreds of others across the Waikato, could be at risk from water-borne disease, according to the national water regulator.
On Thursday, Taumata Arowai released a list of 27 councils that operate 84 drinking water supplies without a treatment barrier preventing waterborne nasties - such as cryptosporidium and giardia - from contaminating water.
The organisation wrote to all water suppliers using similar systems to the ones in Queenstown, where more than 50 people caught cryptosporidium, possibly from council-run water supplies, Taumata Arowai head of regulatory, Steve Taylor said.
