Tahuna: Your water is safe to drink!
Your water comes from here:
Amount of water: MPDC are consented to take up to 105m3/day or 105,000 (litres)
Number of samples taken: 94 compliance related samples for bacterial compliance – no E.coli detected in the samples
What we achieved:
- Part 4 of the DWSNZ (Treatment plant)
- Part 4 of the DWSNZ (Distribution zone)
- Part 8 of the DWSNZ (Chemical compliance)
- Part 9 of the DWSNZ (Radiological compliance)
|
What we didn't achieve:
- Part 5 of the DWSNZ (protozoa compliance, process only).
|
Why we didn't achieve them:
- The required amount of UV manual samples not obtained during some weeks
- Missing data from some online instruments
|
How were adressing it:
- Upgrading our communication network between instruments at the treatment plant and our IT systems so that data cannot go missing
- District wide MPDC have invested over $2 million to date, to upgrade treatment plant instruments and processes with more money to follow
- Improving internal processes to ensure the required number of UV manual samples are taken
