Seqwater will be undertaking essential maintenance work on Russell Island between Thursday 27 June and Friday 28 June 2019. Timing is subject to weather conditions and other unexpected delays.
No full loss of supply is expected during works.
Scheduled work
Thursday 27 June, between 9pm – 5am Friday 28 June: no loss of supply expected but residents on Russell, Lamb, Karragarra and Macleay Islands may experience low water pressure during works and discoloured water as pipelines are reopened.
When works are complete
You may see open hydrants with flowing water – this is necessary to flush pipelines. Please do not approach the hydrants or attempt to turn them off.
In your own home:
- If you experience discoloured water, run a cold water tap until it clears – this may take a few minutes
- Check the cleanliness of water before operating washing machines or filling kettles
- You may need to run each tap is run for a short time to remove any trapped air
