To celebrate National Water Week Bundaberg Regional Council is ensuring the community is flushed with information from top water saving tips to a toilet display at the library.
The theme for this year’s National Water Week, held from 16 to 22 October, is United by Water.
Water and Wastewater portfolio spokesperson Cr Jason Bartels said Water Week was the perfect time to learn more about the service Council provided and how to preserve what is a precious resource.
“I encourage residents to take part in Water Week activities to learn more about the treatment process and get some tips on saving water,” Cr Bartels said.
“This year’s theme ‘United by Water’ provides a great opportunity to reflect on the ways in which water brings us together as a community and plays an important role in so many aspects of our lives.
“Whether you watch the video for a virtual tour of the water treatment process or visit the toilet display at the library, let’s celebrate water and the essential water treatment service Council delivers while we learn more about how to preserve it.”
