Dear Crown Infrastructure Partners / NIFFco,

Following recent claims regarding the successful installation of 120 drinking water treatment plants, I request the following information under the OIA to verify the safety and operational status of these assets:

1.Commissioning vs. Installation: For each of the 120 plants, please provide the date of final commissioning (the date the plant began supplying water to consumers) versus the date of "installation" (the date physical works on site were completed).

2. Compliance Pathway: A breakdown of how many of these 120 plants are currently operating under a Taumata Arowai "Acceptable Solution" versus those requiring a custom, verified Drinking Water Safety Plan.

3. Water Safety Status: A list of any of the 120 sites that are currently—or have been in the last 6 months—subject to a Boil Water Notice or an Interim Source Water Risk Management Plan.

4. Operational Handover: Documentation confirming how many of these 120 sites have successfully transitioned to the 5-year "Maintenance and Training" phase with a local operator, versus those still managed by the capital works contractors.

5. Supply Registration: Confirmation that all 120 plants are currently registered on the Hinekōrako (Taumata Arowai) public register of drinking water supplies.

I look forward to your response.

Kind regards,

James Owen
