Numurkah Water Supply Lacking Firefighting Pressure
The Country Fire Brigades Board reported to the Water Trust on lack of water pressure in Numurkah mains for firefighting. Motor pump supply at Saxton Street and other mains was insufficient, with only a trickle from South Numurkah hydrants and low pressure on Tocumwal Road and Quinn Street. The engineer cited mains too small for the mobile pump, with valve placement preventing full pressure. A plan to enlarge mains was discussed, though no immediate action was possible.
