Water Restrictions Advisory Level 2, Clermont, Effective from 14 September 2020

Isaac Regional Council advises Clermont residents that Level 2 water restrictions will come into effect from Monday, 14 September 2020. Projections indicate that the water level will be between 1.25m to 1.5m below the spillway height of Theresa Creek Dam, which supplies the local water treatment plant, on this date. This is the trigger for Level 2 water restrictions.

Residents will be notified through Council’s website, Facebook page, next edition of the Clermont Rag and a letterbox drop to reaffirm these restrictions. We encourage residents to share this important message with their families, friends, workmates and neighbours.
