The new hired water filtration plant which has arrived in Glenreagh has been installed along with a pre-clarifier tank, pressure booster pumps and chemical dosing equipment.

The pipe work is complete, and the electrical connections completed last Friday.

This week, the Water Treatment Plant (WTP) will be commissioned and tested to ensure water quality meets standards. While we are commissioning the new WTP, Council will be meeting with the NSW Health and the Department of Planning and Environment to discuss the requirements to remove the BWA.

The boil water alert remains in place for the village of Glenreagh. Bottled water or cool boiled water should be used for drinking, washing uncooked food, making ice, cleaning teeth, gargling and pet’s drinking water.

Councillors were to consider a rebate to affected customers at the Council meeting in Grafton on Tuesday November 28.
