Penne for your thoughts: Do you know what the 3Ps are?

The 3Ps are the only three things other than water that are safe to send down the drain. They are:
๐Ÿ…ฟ๏ธ P*e
๐Ÿ…ฟ๏ธ Poo
๐Ÿ…ฟ๏ธ (toilet) Paper

Responding to a blockage recently, our crews discovered that someone must have thought Pasta was included on the list!

Sending the wrong things down the drain can lead to blockages and spills, which are expensive to fix, and can be a risk to our environment and public health.

So please think before sending anything down the drain, so our pipes don't get pasta point of no return.

Water storage levels for Friday 23 October 2026

Combined water storages at Lauriston, Upper Coliban, and Malmsbury Reservoirs: 99%, 68,536 megalitres.

Our water is a precious and finite resource. With the population in our region growing and our climate changing, water conservation is everybody's responsibility. Permanent Water Saving Rules apply when there are no water restrictions in place.

One of our favourite parts of National Water Week is getting to announce the winners of the poster competition. Every year we're amazed by the talented kids in our region who take the time to learn about water conservation and create incredible artworks.

All you have to do is turn your taps off from 5pm - 10pm, and if you register at waternight.com.au/water-night-for-households you can go into the draw for some great prizes!

We have finished building a new 6 megalitre clear water storage tank at the Castlemaine Water Treatment Plant.

This new tank will help improve our water security for Castlemaine and the surrounding community including customers in Chewton, Campbells Creek, Elphinstone, Fryerstown, Harcourt, Barkers Creek, Taradale, Maldon, Yapeen, Newstead and Guildford.

Works to build the tank included earthworks, new pipework, a new concrete tank base and assembly of the steel walls and commissioning of the new tank.

Our Castlemaine Water Treatment Plant provides drinking water to more than 15,000 people each day. Take a look of what the plant looks like from the air.

National Water Week is an annual event aiming to inspire communities to work together on water issues, and remind everyone that water must be used wisely to support Australia's sustainable future.

An easy way to get involved is do nothing (at least for 5 hours on Thursday night). Thursday night is Water Night, when we ask households to turn off their taps from 5-10pm with the aim of improving awareness of water use and helping people value water more (there's also some great prizes up for grabs).

You can find out more at waternight.com.au

Join thousands of Australians turning off their taps this Water Night, 22 October 2026, during National Water Week. Raise your water awareness and see if you can go without taps, showers and running water for five hours.

By mid-1852 there was perhaps 30,000 diggers along the Bendigo Creek, using tubs and cradles to wash gold from the alluvium (top-soil).

And though many complained of a desperate shortage of water, and the diseases they caught from drinking it, the lure of gold somehow eclipsed all misery and hardship.
