Carterton District Council urgently advises Carterton
urban residents and businesses on town supply to boil all
water effective 2pm Thursday 1 April. This means boiling all
water before being used for drinking, making baby formula,
juice, ice, washing fruit and vegetables, other food
preparation/cooking needs, or brushing teeth. This will
remain in place until further notice, with the Council
advising that residents should not expect it to be lifted
for at least seven days while a thorough investigation into
the cause takes place, and remediation work can be carried
out.

News from CDC
The Carterton District Council is confident it has located the cause of the readings of low-level E. coli bacteria in its pipe system which triggered a boil water notice.
The boil water notice is still in place, which means Carterton businesses and urban residents connected to the town supply must boil all water before being used for drinking, making baby formula, juice, ice, washing fruit and vegetables, other food preparation/cooking needs, or brushing teeth.
The Council has increased its flushing regime by 50 per cent after implementing a revised flushing plan which involves separating the town supply into sections, calculating the amount of time each length of pipe needed to be flushed and measuring the chlorine levels in each section.
