We're Recycling Wastewater for Trees and Fields
For weeks now you've been catching waste-water you can re-use on the garden, now Council is able to do the same thing on a grand scale. If you've got a bucket in the shower and you're chucking your dish-water on the vege patch - we're with you!
Parks and Recreation manager Sue Hodge says “It seemed logical to use some of the water which goes through multiple treatment processes at the treatment plant and goes into the wetlands every day. Using a bit of it to water our fields, trees and gardens will make no difference to the ecology of the wetlands, but will make a big difference to the District’s fields, trees and gardens."
“We make a big investment in fields every year. They are very important to the community, especially with the winter sports season coming up and we want to look after them as well as we can."
