    Boil water notice lifted after affecting thousands in Christchurch

    The boil water notice affecting thousands of households in Christchurch's east has been lifted for all but about 20 properties. About 14,000 households feared they'd face at least another day without being able to drink from the tap after the water supply in the city's east was found to be contaminated. A public health alert was issued on Saturday afternoon for people in New Brighton, Burwood, Wainoni, Aranui and Southshore after routine testing discovered total coliforms in the Rawhiti water zone. As Tess Brunton reports, the contaminated water has prompted calls for councils to change the way notify vulnerable and immunocompromised communities.
