Residents in the Hamilton, Waikato and Waipa districts are being asked to be smart with their water use with the introduction of Water Alert Level 1 from today.

Waipā is now at Water Alert Level 3 and while low water supply is the key issue in Te Awamutu, for Cambridge people are simply using too much water.

We're asking Waikato District, Waipa District and Hamilton City Council residents to conserve water now to help delay moving to water alert level 1, which could be required in the New Year if storage levels continue to fall.

Encouraging smart choices around water usage in the Waikato is the mission of the new Smart Water Coordinator, Sally Fraser.

Waipa residents are being asked to reduce the amount of water they use per person.
