Authorised water supply installers need to be suitably experienced individual workers who have relevant experience and skills and who have committed to ongoing training towards the National Certificate in Water Reticulation (Level 3 or 4).
Processing applications
We are not currently accepting any new applications to be an authorised water supply installer while we work through existing applications and migrate to a new operating system.
We anticipate we will start accepting new applications in February 2021 and apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
To become authorised, applicants need to provide evidence to Christchurch City Council that they have:
Experience in carrying out water supply work in accordance with Council standards and specifications
Pay the non-refundable application fee per applicant (not per company) either by cheque or at the cashier at Council Offices in Hereford St
Send or email the application, including all required documentation (as outlined on the application form) to: Post: Authorised Water Supply Installer, City Services, Christchurch City Council, PO Box 73014, Christchurch 8154 Email: AWSI@ccc.govt.nz
On-site technical assessments are required to ensure that the applicant has the necessary experience, technical skills and resources to carry out authorised work in accordance with Council regulations and standards. The applicant will be contacted by the Council assessor to arrange the assessments.
Approval will be given in writing only and is only awarded to the individual and not to commercial entities. It is not transferable and can be withdrawn by the City Council upon non-compliance with the rules as outlined in the Terms and Conditions.
Enquiries about the scheme can be made by phoning Council on 03 941 8830.
