Hastings District Council has issued a Boil Water notice to residents who take their water from the Hastings District Council Esk water supply, Esk Ridge and Kanuka Cliffs, after tests today showed E.coli in the supply.
Medical Officer of Health Dr Nicholas Jones said health officials were not yet aware of any reported sickness from the area, but anyone who was feeling sick, with diarrhoea or vomiting, should contact their family doctor or call Healthline 0800 611 116.
Dr Jones said people must follow the advice from the council and boil their water before drinking it until further notice.
