SunWater has issued a hazard alert to boaties using Bjelke-Petersen Dam as water levels continue to drop.<\/p>\n

On January 17, the level was 13.8 per cent.<\/p>\n

On Monday, this had dropped another 0.3 per cent to 17.739ML.<\/p>\n

“We are working with South Burnett Regional Council and Maritime Safety Queensland to regularly assess the risks associated with recreational use of the storage as the water level decreases,” a SunWater spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“Please keep in mind that there may be hazards under the water\u2019s surface that are not easily visible, so proceed with caution and always follow signage at the storage.<\/p>\n

“It is the responsibility of each recreational user and visitor to be aware of the risks at the storage and when operating a vessel on the lake.<\/p>\n

“We will continue to work with stakeholders to monitor water levels and will provide further updates as required.”<\/p>\n

On Monday, the water level in Boondooma Dam was 40.25 per cent, down from 40.69 per cent on January 17.<\/p>\n
