Stirling, Benhar & South Bruce RWS - Boil water reminder

The council reminds people that the boil water notice remains in place for Stirling, Benhar, Cherry Lane residents and the South Bruce Rural Water Scheme.

Council urges anyone using water from their tap for consumption (including teeth cleaning and washing fruit and vegetables) to boil it for 1 minute before it is used.

You can fill your clean containers at the water tanks available at the Stirling Athenaeum Hall, Cherry Lane or in Benhar, by the Church and Playground.

Customers on the South Bruce Rural Water Scheme may notice a lower flow of water going into their tanks, since the flooding event held in October 2024. If you are experiencing low flow into your tank, please check your wire strainer at your tank's restrictor and do a simple clean. This might resolve the lack of water going into your tank. You can read the step-by-step cleaning guide here.

Progress is continuing on the repair of the Stirling Water Treatment Plant and the repairs are expected to be fully completed by mid-February. You can read more about the Stirling Water Treatment plant update here.
