Norsewood Water Treatment Plant Upgrade

The Norsewood Water Treatment Plant is undergoing upgrades following community concerns about the discolouration and sedimentation of the current water supply. The upgrade is aimed at ensuring the plant meets the New Zealand Drinking Water standards by installing a UV filtration system to eliminate harmful microorganism ensuring safe water for the Norsewood community.

The upgrade to the water treatment filtration process also includes re-plumbing and cleaning of the existing tanks. In addition, a new 30,000l water tank has been installed to ensure the water treatment plant meets the community’s water demand.

Upon completion of the water treatment plant upgrade, a flushing program is scheduled for August - September 2024.
