Water Supply Project

To view the resource consent application for River Recharge with Groundwater, go here.
The Water Supply Project was set up in 2009 to find additional water supply for the district’s future needs.
On 27 September 2012 the Council made a decision to lodge resource consent application for it's preferred solution for additional water supply for Paraparaumu, Raumati and Waikanae being River Recharge with Groundwater, which will see the river replenished with groundwater in times of low flow. This will allow Council to increase its freshwater take from the river for use by residents. To see how the river recharge scheme will work, go here.
Construction of relevant infrastructure is expected to proceed in 2013/14 for completion by 2015.
