Find out about water restrictions for properties not connected to the reticulated Council supply (for instance a bore, well, water from your own property or a neighbour's property and via resource consent).
Water consent holders:
If you're a water consent holder, you can find out what your current rationing stage is here(external link) or check the 329 notices below.
When conditions are dry and there is a risk of low river flows and/or seawater intrusion into aquifers, we consider restrictions for water use through a forum called the Dry Weather Task Force (DWTF). The task force is made up of water user representatives and council staff.
During an emergency, we may restrict or prohibit the use of water for any specified purpose, for any specified period, and for any or all users.
We let people know by public notice, Newsline, here on our website, social media and other channels.
The Council may enact penalties over and above those contained in the Water Supply Bylaw conditions to enforce these restrictions.

Please note:
For the properties in the Waimea Plains that have not been issued a new consent, or have objected to the new consent conditions, they will continue to operate under the old consent conditions.
All consent holders will be contacted directly by the Council.
Our water supply network covers a lot of ground, so we've created maps and diagrams of each supply.
