General advisory - rivers and
beaches Following the heavy rainfall brought to
Nelson by Ex-Cyclone Gita, we advise not to swim at the
beach or in the river for 48 hours after rain, as surface
run-off could be a health risk.
Minor sewage
discharge - The Haven A single source sewage
discharge occurred in The Haven on the evening of 20
February. Signage will be erected from Marybank to Kinzett
Terrace, and monitoring will commence. We advise avoiding
water contact in this area until the signs are removed.
