Leak leaves homes without water<br />
• By Matt Salmons<br />
ABOUT 30 houses in<br />
Akaroa went without water<br />
on Monday after a leaking<br />
water main forced the village<br />
into water conservation<br />
mode.<br />
Homes on Libeau Lane and<br />
Chemin du Nache were most<br />
affected, but the city council<br />
recommended residents in<br />
the town conserve water<br />
until the leak was repaired<br />
at 5pm.<br />
City council reticulation<br />
maintenance operational delivery<br />
leader Steve Pink said<br />
the leak was first reported<br />
at 6.55am, with the location<br />
identified at 7.10am.<br />
The leaking section ran<br />
under Libeau Lane, forcing<br />
Citycare staff to dig up a section<br />
of the road to access and<br />
repair the leak.<br />
A water tanker was<br />
brought in to supply water<br />
to affected properties and<br />
fill water containers for<br />
residents.<br />
Mr Pink said the exact<br />
cause would not be known<br />
until the pipe was removed<br />
and inspected, but there<br />
were no immediate plans to<br />
replace the pipe.<br />
