Unsuitable for irrigation

Bore water at the Woy Woy Memorial Gardens would not be suitable for irrigation, a report from Gosford Council has shown.

Cr Jim Macfadyen had asked city services director Mr Stephen Glenn on May 2, what progress had been made to install a spear point pump in the memorial gardens at Woy Woy.

Mr Glenn said that recent analysis of bore water by council's water and sewerage directorate in the area had shown that bore water would not be suitable for irrigation without extensive treatment.

"On this basis, the installation of spear point pumps at Woy Woy Memorial Gardens has not been undertaken," Mr Glenn said.
