ZONE 2 STOCKWATER UPDATE

June 4, 2021

This message is recorded at 2.30pm Friday 4th June 2021.

WIL Operations Team has managed to get the old Eyre River syphon operating and Stockwater flow is now restored to ZONE 2. We monitor the situation over the coming days.

The immediate issue has been averted but the larger issue of the main syphon damage still remains.

We will keep you updated.
