RĀHUI PLACED ACROSS WAITEMATĀ HARBOUR BY NGĀTI WHĀTUA ŌRĀKEI AFTER RAW SEWAGE FLOWS IN HARBOURLocal iwi Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei have placed a rāhui across the Waitematā Harbour after a 13-metre sinkhole appeared in Parnell that allowed raw wastewater to flow directly into the harbour. This morning, Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, with the support of the Taumata Kaumātua, conducted a ceremony across the Waitematā to address the environmental impacts of the unprecedented deluge of waste caused by a blocked Ōrākei main sewer that’s causing overflows into the Waitematā. The ceremony included the placement of a rāhui. A rāhui is a cultural and formal placement of restrictions upon a place for reasons of safety or preservation..... www.nzherald.co.nz/kahu/rahui-placed-across-pristine-waitemata-harbour-by-ngati-whatua-orakei-after-raw-sewage-flows-in-the-harbour/BAQFRNSEZZERBEJHRFJK447RZE/
