Incorrect Tsunami evacuation maps were sent to a number of Tauranga households after a delivery error by New Zealand Post.
In a press release from Tauranga City Council, northern general manager for New Zealand Post Michael Lewis said he apologised for the incorrect deliveries, which were due to human error.
"We will be working with the council to fix this and redeliver the right packs to the right addresses."
Each household in the tsunami evacuation zone was to receive a letter and either a Mount Maunganui, Bayfair, Papamoa or Papamoa East evacuation map.
Some residents received a different area to where they lived.
