Mr Toole said,” Water supply services to the area encompass the Shires of Blayney, Cabonne and Weddin with bulk water to Cowra Shire Council to service rural consumers on Trunk Main ‘C’ and the villages of Woodstock and Gooloogong. Overall this is such a vital service and I enjoyed the opportunity to catch up and to also welcome the newly elected Chairman, Cr David Somervaille, recently appointed General Manager, Mr Gavin Rhodes, and long term Director Operations and Technical Services, Mr Darrell Sligar.”
“Central Tablelands County Council was first proclaimed in 1944 and their growth has now resulted in approximately 5,700 water connections providing potable water to around 11,000 consumers in 14 towns and villages which include Cudal, Mandurama, Canowindra, Eugowra, Manildra, Grenfell, Carcoar, Millthorpe, Cargo, Lyndhurst and Quandialla providing an incredibly essential water supply infrastructure to all of these locations.”
The State government is committed to improving water security for agriculture and town water in the Lachlan Valley, and as part of this is currently investigating a suitable location for increased water storage on the Belubula River.
Central Tablelands Water is an important stakeholder and will have a central role to play as these plans unfold.
