Notice of Water Service Interruption - Cumnock and Yeoval
Published on 18 January 2022
Cabonne Council is continuing working to deliver water security to Yeoval and Cumnock through the delivery of a pipeline from Molong that will provide sustainable water to both villages.
As this project continues to progress, Council and its contractors, will be progressing to undertake disinfection works in the pipe network in each of these villages. These works will involve replacement of isolation valves and the cleaning of the pipe infrastructure. Not only will this work prepare the villages for access to Molong water, but will ensure that the water infrastructure in Yeoval and Cumnock is appropriate for the future.
These works will unfortunately result in intermittent interruption of the water supply service to CUMNOCK and YEOVAL over the next month.
