Horizons Regional Council says the Makino floodgate may need to be closed overnight
16 June 2022
Emergency Management Controller Ged Shirley says the forecast indicates rainfall of around 8 to 10mm.
He says this may raise the Makino Stream to the trigger level of 1.5 metres -- the level that required two gate operations earlier this week.
Shirley says while the rainfall might not be significant, the area is already saturated.
