  • The Stanthorpe Water Supply Story
    Supplying over 5000 people with water when the dam runs dry - the Stanthorpe water supply story Seren McKenzie Southern Downs Regional Council Abstract: Stanthorpe is a town in southern Queensland in the local government area of Southern Downs Regional Council. Stanthorpe has a stand alone water supply (ie, no connectivity to any water grids) and the over 5000 residents are supplied by Storm King Dam. The capacity of Storm King Dam is just over 2000 ML and the Dam has never run dry in over 60 years, albeit it has come close. Stanthorpe itself does not have a high population growth however is a tourist town and does accommodate a high transient population due to the nature of the horticulture and agriculture businesses in the region. Following years of low to zero rainfall and intense drought coupled with another failed wet season in 2018/19, it became clear to Council that Storm King Dam was going to run dry before the next wet season and actions needed to be taken to ensure ongoing water supply for Stanthorpe. It was too late to plan and build a pipeline from Warwick, some 60 kms away, and Council was not financially resourced for such a project. Working closely with the State Government and consultants and contractors, Council was able to deliver a solution by trucking water from Warwick to new water tanks at Storm King Dam. The total project value is valued at around $15 million with $2.6 million in capital works and the remainder in the carting of the water through to February 2021 (if required).

Of course we should! We love her and are very, very proud of her. Last year Laura Geitz and her champion Firebirds team broke the hearts of the N.S.W. fans when the Swifts were defeated by 1 point by the firebirds in the ANZ Netball Championship Grand Final. Last Sunday, not only did she re-break their hearts, but ripped them out of their chests without mercy. The coronary inducing double extra time final showed why these girls are deserving of back to back premierships. The Swifts arrived at Boondall with an unbeatable match plan with Swifts G.K. Sharni Layton (she must be the netball equivalent of NRL heckler Michael Ennis) primed to upset the long Jamaican shooter Romelda Aiken. However, they didn’t OK this match plan with Geitz! In typical Laura style, she was humble in accepting the trophy, taking no individual credit and instead praising her very talented team. We are very proud that Laura is the face of the Allora Regional Sports Museum and wish her all the best in 2017, whether she continues playing or enjoys retirement.
