Water Conservation Plan
Mahere Tiaki Wai
Masterton has a generally reliable and secure supply of water, but this varies depending on the season. Unless it’s managed carefully, demand can exceed supply during the summer months.
Council has limits on the volume of water that can be taken from the Waingawa River. These limits are based on both legal requirements created by the resource consent and physical constraints from the design of the intake and treatment system itself.
