Uhlaziyo lomgangatho wamanzi eLake Hood nge-17 kaJulayi 2024
Abakhi baza kuqalisa ukwakha umjelo omtsha wokujika amanzi ukusuka kumjelo wokungenisa amanzi okhoyo kuMlambo iAshburton ukuya kulwandiso lweLake Hood, njengenxalenye yomsebenzi wokuphucula ukuhamba kwamanzi kulo lonke ichibi.
IBhunga libeke uhlahlo-lwabiwo mali lwe-$250,000 lokuphucula umgangatho wamanzi kunyaka-mali ka-2024-25 kwaye itshaneli entsha yiprojekthi yalo yokuqala.
Umphathi weQela leZakhiwo kunye neendawo ezivulekileyo uNeil McCann uthe akukho manzi ongezelelweyo athathwayo emlanjeni, kwaye amanzi avela kwimvume yokuthatha amanzi ekhoyo aza kuthathwa ngokusebenzisa indawo yokungenisa amanzi ekhoyo, aze ahlulwe phakathi komjelo omtsha kunye nomjelo uye echibini lokuqala elunxwemeni olusemantla.
“Sinethemba lokuba umsebenzi womjelo uza kuqhubeka kwinyanga ezayo kwaye amanzi aza kungena kwi-extension yechibi kufutshane nendawo apho iqonga lokutsiba likhoyo. Ingcinga kukuba amanzi aza kunceda ekugubungeleni imijelo kwicala elingasentshona yechibi.
“Siza kujonga ukuhamba kwamanzi ukuze sibone ukuba kuya kufuneka umsebenzi owongezelelweyo ukuze amanzi afike apho siwafuna khona. Esi sisiqalo nje somsebenzi wethu wokuphucula umgangatho wamanzi eLake Hood kwaye iBhunga lizimisele ukutyala imali kwizisombululo zexesha elide.”
IBhunga likwafuna ukuphucula indlela amanzi angena ngayo emlanjeni kwaye liyaqhubeka neengxoxo ne-Environment Canterbury malunga namanzi omlambo.
Ukususela ngomhla woku-1 kuJulayi, i-ACL ibilawula ichibi leBhunga. Le nkampani inesivumelwano seminyaka emihlanu somsebenzi, esiquka ukusebenza komatshini wokuvuna ukhula, oza kuqala entwasahlobo.
UMnu. McCann uthe iLake Extension Trust Limited yayikade ilawula ichibi kunye neendawo ezingqongileyo zeBhunga.
“Singathanda ukubulela iTrust ngomsebenzi wonke ewenzele iBhunga kule minyaka idlulileyo kwaye sijonge phambili ekuqhubekeni nokusebenza nabo njengomphuhlisi.”
Le trust isandula ukuthenga iihektare ezili-10 kwiBhunga ukuze iqalise inqanaba le-15 echibini.
