> About the Coliban Rural System
The Coliban Rural System provides untreated water from Malmsbury Reservoir and Lake Eppalock to 1,686 customers via 550km of channels and pipelines.
Rural water is untreated, and therefore not intended nor suitable for human consumption. No quality standards apply to this water, unlike water from the treated urban drinking water supply.
Rural water supplied to properties is of a seasonal nature and the amount and flow rate cannot be guaranteed. Depending on supply conditions, a full allocation of water may not be available to customers.
The supply of water via Coliban Water’s rural water supply system is by licence issued under Section 51 of the Water Act 1989.
> Rural Season Declaration 2011/12
The allocation for the 2011/12 rural season is 100% for the first time in ten years.
Further information is sent to rural customers by post with their pre-season information packs.
