BAN ON SPRINKLERS ACROSS WELLINGTON
A ban on the use of residential sprinklers and irrigation systems will take effect in Wellington, Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt and Porirua from midnight tonight (Wednesday, 29 November 2017).
The ban is a result of increasing water consumption caused by a long spell of dry weather. NIWA has called this November one the driest in the last 90 years, and demand has reached levels normally only seen in February or March.
