A new water filtration plant has been delivered to Glenreagh.

Minor earthworks are taking place to level the area for the clarifier, backwash tank and pumps.

Connecting pipework and electrical cabling and commissioning of the filtration plant will take place from this week and may take two weeks to be fully operational.

• Council will consider assistance for impacted customers at the Ordinary Council Meeting.

• Impacted businesses are encouraged to contact Council’s insurance officer.

In the meantime, the boil water alert remains in place for the village of Glenreagh. We thank the community for their patience while this matter is resolved.

Clarence Valley Council and NSW Health issued a precautionary alert on 11 October due to increased turbidity levels in the drinking water. Daily water samples continue to be collected for laboratory analysis with no detection of E. coli. Ultraviolet and chlorine disinfection treatment units continue to function to the required standards.
