It has suffered several collapses in recent times.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Hood said it appeared the latest problem had been caused by stormwater getting into it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There is obviously some inflow of stormwater into the system that we don&#8217;t know about,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Later this year Council staff plan to conduct tests around Kingaroy &#8211; pumping smoke into the lines &#8211; to try to find out where this stormwater was coming from.<\/p>\n<p>Gutters and drains are sometimes illegally connected to the sewerage system but Mr Hood said it also occurred accidentally, when drainage from new sheds or garages were connected into the wrong pipeline.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24988\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24988\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/20130226pump1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-24988\" title=\"20130226 Pump\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/20130226pump1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/20130226pump1.jpg 620w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/20130226pump1-300x186.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24988\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">FLASHBACK: \u00a0The pump being used to bypass the sewerage main failure in February<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contractors will begin work next week to reline a sewerage trunk main near River Road, Kingaroy, which suffered a partial failure during the February floods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":24988,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[22,3],"tags":[1131],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.11 -
