PART-TREATED RECONSTITUTED SEWERAGE IN YOUR DRINKING WATER?



The above picture is a real image of untreated sewerage in NZ's Waikato/Hamilton Treatment Plant, as it begins its treatment process --- before being treated and later discharged BACK INTO the Waikato River. This same Waikato River (downstream of Hamilton) is now the source of about 20% (and soon to become 50%)of Auckland Region's processed/treated drinking tap water!!! About 17 other cities and towns and villages also put their treated sewerage back into the Waikato River - most before Hamilton's own drinking water intake.

Watching the videos on this web site presented by Dr Theo Colburn (see HERE) can educate one about dangers inherent in consuming reconstituted sewerage (no matter how compete or sophisticated the treatment plant or process). Some pollutants simply CANNOT be removed --- and these include hormonal substances that can then disrupt our bodies delicate endocrine systems, with some catastrophic consequences.

Another way, in some literature, of more politely describing the above treated and untreated sewerage making up a part of the Waikato River, suggests:

"Slightly-modified human wastes are pumped into the river downriver of several towns. The Pukete 2 project, which started in 2002, will upgrade the Waikato treatment waste water plant in a series of stages costing $24 million."

Another question left unanswered is what is the level of treatment of sewerage for Cambridge City; and for the multitude of smaller towns along the Waikato River and its many tributories, like the Waipa River (which has the towns of Otorohanga, Pirongia and Whatawhata along its river banks)? Later within this page we report concerns Ngati Maniapoto has with the Waipa River; about its health.

The above sewerage picture might help viewers understand, in real terms, what others are trying to process and sterilise and dilute; for reconstitution back into the wider Auckland Region's tap water.

Drinking water coming from a seriously polluted river, forms a part of the present day demands of Auckland consumers. Only when consumers change demands, might the source change.

By example, Aucklanders could demand that all tap water for drinking and water for drink/food input and for human washing, came from the water dams surrounding Auckland city...and that the Waikato River was used only for other purposes. This would require a dual tap system installed in each home - which might be a consumer cost to ensure reconstituted sewerage was not drunk or used in food/drink manufacturing?

Of course, in Hamilton this option might not be possible, due to 100% of Hamilton City's water coming, these days, from the Waikato River.

If Aucklanders and Hamiltonians are each fine about them and their babies and children drinking reconstituted ****, then those in authority and the businesses will by all means feed it to them. Such is the system we have created around us all; in this time of human evolution, with many decisions based on consumerism and commercialism.

Perhaps many in Auckland and Hamiton Cities do NOT realise they may be drinking treated sewerage/****/urine/hormones/antibiotics/used condoms/legal prescrition drugs and residue of illegal drugs/with perhaps some viruses and protozoa and other toilet wastes of those people living in Hamilton City and Huntly and other cities bordering on the Waikato River. Or are all such unthinkable human excrement by-products satisfactorily or nearly satisfactorily deleted in the waste water processing and sewerage treatment?

One man recently stated to our team at the Celevdon markets, that he was ok with Auckland tap water and he fully knew and understood it included reconstituted sewerage---and he closed by saying to us it fulfilled his daily need for fiber! But one can ask---while one may seek fiber- should it not be natures fresh fiber--and not someone else's used product, being reconstituted fiber (and perhaps many other waste by-products) from another persons pooh and urine?

Is this REALLY what you agree to drink, and provide for your kids and/or growing foetus?

Are drinks or foods made using treated Waikato River water the sort of drink and food you seek to consume?

Why can organic branded products be permitted to use water which is compromised and far from organic?

The NZ Green Party's senior person Russel Norman has recorded his willingness to drink reconstituted sewerage as a part of the NZ Govt propaganda campaign to try to convince all Aucklanders' to drink it - don't be fooled by any politician making such claims - no matter what party he/she pretends to support! You can read Mr Norman's words about the Waikato River (and the human and cow and other animal **** it includes) on his blog here:

SO HOW BAD IS THE WATER AT THE END OF THE WAIKATO RIVER?

THIS IS A PHOTO OF THE MOUTH OF THE WAIKATO TAKEN RECENTLY FROM A PLANE.



REALLY BAD IS THE ANSWER.

IT HAS MASSES OF SEDIMENT, LOTS OF NITROGEN AND PHOSPHOROUS THAT FEEDS ALGAL BLOOMS AND HEAPS OF FAECES AND EVERYTHING ASSOCIATED WITH FAECES SUCH AS BACTERIA AND VIRUSES. THERE ARE ALSO A FAIR BIT OF HEAVY METALS, SOME NATURAL AND SOME ADDED BY CONTACT’S GEOTHERMAL PLANT (THEY ARE ONE OF THE FEW GEOTHERMAL PLANTS THAT DOESN’T RE-INJECT) AND OTHER INDUSTRIES.

SOME WAY UPSTREAM OF THE RIVER MOUTH, BY EXAMPLE NEAR AUCKLAND’S WATER INTAKE (40 KMS UPSTREAM), THE LEVEL OF FAECES REGULARLY CAUSE BREACHES OF NZ'S SWIMMING WATER STANDARDS. THE FAECES OR RESIDUAL FAECES REMAINS ARE LARGELY ANIMAL OR HUMAN IN ORIGIN.

IN HAMILTON SOME SAY “FLUSH TWICE, AUCKLAND NEEDS THE WATER”.

AND IT’S TRUE THAT HAMILTON’S TREATED SEWERAGE GOES INTO THE WAIKATO. BUT SO DOES THE TREATED OR UNTREATED SEWERAGE FROM MANY OTHER COMMUNITIES ALONG THE WAIKATO AND ALL IT'S TRIBUTARIES (LIKE POLLUTED WAIPA RIVER)

It is widely known that near the Tuakau intake pipes/plant for Auckland's drinking water the Waikato River water quality, based on another criteria of water clarity-turbidity, is BELOW recreational/swimming standards. Refer to this Waikato Regional Council chart outlining this fact:

 Pollution or just a lot of rain?
latter is far more likely thu.
Lot guys on the forums here white bait, fish, duck shoot,  recreational boating water ski etc, and live near by.

Yes that photo was taken after a lot of rain that's why I only fish it after a week of no rain

Regardless. .this River is a sewer from the Huka Falls.human and animal waste being recycled for auckland

CA for PM

this is also why the alliance of the greens and Labour is a problem for Labour.
The green party has a tendency to always find the very worst and dramatise it all indicating that its the norm
