A few residents have informed us that they have been told by persons unknown that there is an E-coli issue with Martinborough’s drinking water.
South Wairarapa District Council wishes to firmly reassure all residents our drinking water is safe to drink and use.
Wellington Water Limited who maintain and operate our drinking water systems have today advised the latest test results, taken only yesterday, confirms there is NO evidence of E-coli in the water in any of the three towns, Featherston, Greytown or Martinborough. Our drinking water remains safe to drink and use.
Should anyone have any information on the basis for this rumour then we would be interested to speak with them. 06 306 9611.
We take such matters seriously and remain vigilant should we hear anything further.
