The Canterbury Drinking Water Reference Group was proactively formed after the Havelock North water contamination
outbreak and is made up of representatives from Environment Canterbury, all Canterbury councils and the Canterbury
District Health Board Medical Officer of Health.
The group meets regularly to discuss Canterbury’s public drinking water supplies, share knowledge and highlight any
issues in the region.
