The water level is 40mm below the crest.

Inflow is currently around 1,800ML per day.

Consumption of filtered water in Bathurst is averaging 12.4ML per day (which is 5 Olympic sized swimming pools).

Treated water returned to the Macquarie River is averaging 11.1ML per day.

The Bathurst Regional Council area at present has no water restrictions; however water wise behaviours are expected:

• Water lawns and gardens out of the heat of the day (before 10am and after 4pm).
• Check sprinklers are positioned so that water only falls on soft surfaces.
• Use trigger nozzles on your hoses. Clean paths and driveways with a broom or blower first; and only use a hose for health or safety reasons.
