Shutdown on Lumsden Balfour water supply

Friday, 8 January 2010

Construction of the new rising main for the Lumsden Balfour Rural Water Supply is on schedule and to connect the new and existing pipe network, the scheme has to be shut down for two days. The shutdown will take place between the hours of 9am to 3pm on Thursday 10 December and Friday 11 December 2009. 

All consumers need to make sure they have at 48 hours of water storage for their supply while the shutdown is enforced. The Lumsden township will not be affected by this shutdown.

Council apologises for any inconvenience that this may cause.
