For Immediate Release – 19 January 2023
Council advises Windorah residents that due to a water quality issue, they are advised to boil their water or use bottled water until further notice. Council is currently working to fix the issue. Consuming unboiled drinking water could lead to illness, especially for vulnerable people (e.g. those who are very young, elderly or immune compromised). People should bring drinking water to a boil and then allow the water to cool before using it. Boiled water can be stored in a clean, closed container for later use. Kettles with automatic cut-off switches are suitable for producing boiled water. Variable temperature kettles should be set to boil.
This advice should be followed until further notice.
If you are concerned about your health, you should contact Qld Health on 13 HEALTH (13 43 25 84), or your local doctor.
