Hervey Bay and the urban Fraser Coast are on treated mains water from council sources. Wet-season turbidity events are managed at the plant.
The dominant and often ONLY supply on K'gari and coastal-fringe properties. Sand-island properties see fast tank turnover but distinctive salinity influence from coastal aerosols.
