💧 Reservoir Cleaning Program – Gulargambone, Coonamble & Quambone

Coonamble Shire Council is undertaking routine cleaning of the water reservoirs in Gulargambone, Coonamble and Quambone to help maintain water quality and ensure our water storage infrastructure continues to operate effectively.

Over time, sediment and naturally occurring material can accumulate at the bottom of reservoirs. Regular cleaning helps remove this build-up and supports the ongoing maintenance of our drinking water supply infrastructure.

What you might notice during the works:

* 💧 Slight water discolouration: You may notice some temporary discolouration of water from your tap while the works are underway. This can occur during reservoir maintenance and is generally nothing to be concerned about.
* 🧱 Red sediment around the reservoir: You may notice red sediment on the ground surrounding the reservoir during cleaning. This material will be cleaned up as part of the works.

Council is coordinating these works across all three communities to maintain our water infrastructure and support the continued delivery of water services.

We thank residents for their patience and understanding while this important maintenance is carried out.

🚧 𝗥𝗢𝗔𝗗 𝗖𝗟𝗢𝗦𝗨𝗥𝗘 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗘 🚧
Coonamble Shire Council advises the travelling public that ALL UNSEALED ROADS are currently CLOSED to all non-essential traffic due to wet conditions.

🚜 Primary producers are requested to postpone the movement of heavy vehicles until unsealed sections between properties and the sealed road network have thoroughly dried out.

⚠️ Road users are reminded:
• Travelling on water-covered roads is extremely dangerous and should be avoided
• Road conditions can change without warning — if roads are open, please drive with caution
• Unsealed roads are easily damaged when wet
• Drivers may be liable for damage caused to closed roads and could void their vehicle insurance
• Repairs to damaged roads generally cannot begin until roads and gravel stockpiles dry out
• Council prioritises repairs, with higher traffic roads usually repaired first

🚑 Emergency vehicles responding to legitimate emergencies are exempt from this directive.

Council staff will continue inspecting roads throughout and following the rain event, with updated road condition advice provided as conditions change.
