CANCELLED: Boiling water notice for Duaringa

Boiling water is no longer required for Duaringa residents. Council thanks the community for their understanding and patience over the past few days.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Water production is now restored at the water treatment plant.

The low levels both in the network and the reservoirs have led to discolouration in the town’s water supply. To ensure resident safety, a boil water notice is now in place for Duaringa.

Council is hoping to receive clear water sampling results from Queensland Health on Thursday 10 March 2022.

Until the water notice is lifted please follow the boil water recommendations.

When to boil water

Water for consumption should be brought to a rolling boil until further notice.

Water should then be allowed to cool and stored in a clean container with a lid and refrigerated. Cooled boiled or bottled water should be used for:

drinking, cooking, washing raw foods (such as seafood or salads), making ice, pet’s drinking water and cleaning teethdishes should be washed in hot soapy water and children should take bottled or cooled boiled water to school.
