Water Restrictions in Place

Water restrictions are in place for ALL of the Ruapehu District, with Taumarunui and Ohakune requested to take particular care with water use.

Due to flooding and poor quality of water in rivers where water is taken for the supply of Ruapehu townships, the Ruapehu district is currently using stored water from reservoirs.

Conserving stored water will reduce the requirement to treat dirty water to a drinking standard.

Please be water wise. Every drop counts!
