Kingaroy’s Water Treatment Plant at Gordonbrook Dam … major upgrades are due to be completed before the end of next year<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

November 3, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kingaroy’s water supply will continue to be sourced from Boondooma Dam until the planned upgrades to the Gordonbrook water treatment plant are completed late next year.<\/p>\n

Water was sourced from Gordonbrook Dam until a water quality issues earlier this year prompted South Burnett Regional Council to swap to the Boondooma supply.<\/p>\n

A spokesman said today Council intends to continue using water from Boondooma Dam as the preferred supply for Kingaroy for the foreseeable future, with Gordonbrook Dam as a back-up supply.<\/p>\n

“Once the planned upgrades to the water treatment plant at Gordonbrook Dam are completed in late 2015, Council will be able to blend the two sources,” the spokesman said.<\/p>\n

“This should result in improved water quality and taste.”<\/p>\n
