Dayboro is not connected to the SEQ Water Grid and relies on its own water supply from bores in the North Pine River.
The river stopped running in September 2019 due to lack of rainfall. Despite some rain, the water supply remains lower than normal and the North Pine River is still not running. The community has responded to our requests to limit water use and we have seen a drop in water usage.
We thank the community for their efforts to help avoid water restrictions in this area.
