Wentworth Shire Council would like to inform the users of the Buronga Houseboat Effluent Disposal Station, that it will be out of service to undertake required repairs.
The outage will occur from 7:30am to 6pm on Thursday 30 July 2026. An alternative houseboat effluent disposal station is located downstream at Dareton.
Council apologises for any inconvenience while these important works are undertaken.
The Buronga Effluent Disposal Station will not be operational from 7am Monday 23 June until 5pm Monday 30 June 2025.
The station will be fitted with a “Smart Fill Unit”, to be consistent with the system installed over 12 months ago at the Wentworth Effluent Disposal Station.
During the initial trial period the station will require a $1.00 “tap and go” charge to activate the pump for each boat sewage pumpout. This discounted charge is applicable for the initial trial period of July only. Rates as set out in Wentworth Shire Council’s Operational Plan will apply after the trial.
Wentworth Shire Council thanks the Buronga boating community for their patience during this important upgrade.
