Update 1/11/24: Water discolouration
Please be advised council are aware of the issue, which is higher than normal levels of manganese in the raw water.
Treatment processes have been altered to more effectively remove the manganese. Today, council network teams have been in town flushing lines to clear the discoloured water. Residents may experience some discolouration of their water, it is recommended that you run the water for a short period of time.
The discolouration does not affect the safety of the water, so residents can continue to use it as usual.
