Water Supplies Management Plan and Inventory

The council is responsible for 26 reticulated water schemes and 3 rural water supplies that bring water to 16,900 people within the district. The water schemes have a replacement value of approximately $49.6m (excluding land value).

Overall, there are 54 source points, including wells and intakes, 28 storage facilities and 42 pump stations. The total length of the reticulation is 852 km, varying in diameter from DN13 to DN450.

The reticulated urban water schemes provide water for domestic and industrial use, with the majority of schemes having fire fighting code of practice capabilities.

Restricted schemes provide stock and domestic water on a regulated basis without normal fire fighting capabilities.

The following documents describe the plans and state of each water supply.
