Connect Coliban
Find out about the ongoing risks and impacts to our region's water and sewer infrastructure.
Flooding and ongoing wet conditions created significant issues with the quality of the raw water that is treated at our Water Treatment Plants prior to use.
Excess run-off meant higher than normal levels of leaf litter, organic content, chemicals, or even sewage washed into our rivers and reservoirs that feed our water supply.
When this happens, our Water Treatment Plants work extra hard and take longer to treat your drinking water.
We acknowledge and respect Victoria Traditional Owners as the original custodians of Victoria's land and waters, their unique ability to care for country and deep spiritual connection to it. We honour Elders past and present whose knowledge and wisdom has ensured the continuation of culture and traditional practices. We are committed to being a safe and inclusive workplace for LGBTIQA+ communities and their families.
