The WWTP upgrade build is well underway. To date the tank base is completed and the wall construction is underway. The project is on track both financial within the total budget figure $24.37 million and on time with for completion date of July 2025.
Current investigations and studies are underway for discharge options. Some early Iwi discussions, along with site visits, have taken place. As a result, Option 3 was ruled out due to the cultural significance of the site.
Initial feedback, from the Iwi consulted, favoured option 1 (Wainui Reserve Western Coastal Gully)
The options were presented at the last Raglan WWTP online meeting held 13 June 2024, with positive feedback from all involved. Planning is underway to share the options with the wider Raglan public and other interested stakeholder for discussion and feedback.
