Isaac Regional Council wishes to advise Dysart and Moranbah residents of sewer network Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection and associated relining works which are due to commence on 24 November 2023 and continue through until May 2024, in strategically identified locations.  

WHAT ARE WE DOING?

  • Council has engaged the contractor Relining Solutions Pty Ltd to undertake the rehabilitation works of the sewer gravity mains/pipelines by structurally relining the interior of the pipelines for extending their service life.
  • The works will be completed in stages and include the pre-cleaning and CCTV investigation of the underground pipelines, followed by structural relining of portions of the sewer gravity network by trenchless installation.
  • The works will occur within the residential and commercial property boundaries and will require access to the properties (outdoors only) in order to access the existing public sewer lines and manhole network.  Affected property occupants will be given prior written notification.

WHEN IS IT HAPPENING?

The works are scheduled to commence in Dysart initially on 24, November 2023 followed by Moranbah on 4, December 2023 and will continue in both townships through to May 2024.

These works will be undertaken:

24 November 2023 to May 2024
7.00am to 6.00pm, Monday to Friday and 7.00am to 4.00pm Saturday
Sunday work will be conducted only in commercial and parkland areas from 8.30am to 4.00pm
Throughout the townships of Dysart and Moranbah
Weather permitting

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • Council will be working closely with our contractors to minimise any impacts of these works on your daily routine.
  • The sewer network will be rehabilitated, as identified, by inserting new liners through existing manholes by trenchless methods.
  • Excavation or disruption of your sewerage service will not be necessary in the majority of cases.
  • During this time, residents may experience a limited increase in noise and vehicle movements. 
  • The Contractor will ensure appropriate safety, noise and environmental controls are in place and will endeavour to minimise any impact to the local community.
  • There should be no disruption to your water and wastewater services.
