Mataura Water Tank

The Council has set up a water tank outside the Mataura Service Centre so residents can collect water for drinking. The water will come from the Gore supply and will be treated.

Residents need to bring their own containers.

It is intended the tank will remain in place until the Pluera intake is returned to service.

The tank became available to residents today, Thursday 12 January.
