Further Water Restrictions Loom
Hervey Bay is currently locked into Level 2 water restrictions as is most of south east Queensland and further restrictions could be in force by the end of March.
Despite being in the traditional rainy season the catchement areas have received little rain in the last month or so and water levels continue to fall. The Weather Bureau does expect some falls mid week but suggests that there is no significant rain in sight for the region.
Most residents and businesses here in Hervey Bay are adhering to the water restrictions but there are some who feel that they are above the rules that the rest of us have to abide by. We saw one person washing their car with the hose yesterday.
