Pollution of the Namoi River Traced to Erosion and Mines
At a Manilla council meeting, inspector Gabriel reported Namoi turbidities partly from soil erosion, not solely from Watsons Creek mining. Sampling showed sediment presence at Watsons Creek junction and Manilla weir, while some discolouration persisted into retreat crossing. Aldermen debated sources, noting storms clear soil washes but some sediment remains. pollution also linked to overstocking and paddock runoff. A separate note: a Goondo road accident killed a woman and severely injured four others, including H. Dyball, secretary of TM.
