Title: Lake Borumba access notice
Post by: Editor on January 15, 2015, 08:22:37 PM
Lake Borumba temporarily closed to all water-based activities
 Date: 15/01/2015   - Seqwater

As a precautionary measure and in the interest of public safety, Lake Borumba will be temporarily closed to all water-based recreation activities from 6pm Thursday 15 January 2015, due to the presence of blue-green algae. All water-based recreation activities include swimming and waterskiing as well as boating, kayaking, canoeing and sailing.

For further information please see the Seqwater blue-green algae fact sheet (http://previous.seqwater.com.au/public/sites/default/files/userfiles/file/pdfs/Blue-green%20algae%20fact%20sheet%20Oct2011.pdf)  .

We will continue to perform water quality testing at Lake Borumba, and will communicate with stakeholders when we have further results. We are unsure of the duration of this temporary closure. The lake will be re-opened to water-based recreation activities when test results indicate that it is safe to do so.
