The sheet piling for the pumps that pumped water from the “Goolwa Lake” to Lake Alexandrina have been removed and now siphons are being installed to siphon water from the Goolwa Lake back into Lake Alexandrina. The dam is being reinforced with more loads of sand. This is beginning to feel a little like the Sydney Harbour Bridge where once it is painted, it is time to start painting it again.

It is an offence to walk on the dam/regulator.
