By HARRIET GILMORE WARREN Shire Library is back in business on Dubbo Street, after temporarily relocating for more than four months to Burton Street for renovations. This follows the Library’s brand spanking new entrance recently being com-

pleted; with landscaping work still underway and expected to be wrapped-up by the end of the month. To celebrate the reopening and check-out the renovations, a small group of locals came together for morning tea last Tuesday, February 6. Warren Shire Council Gen-

eral Manager, Gary Woodman said he was delighted to welcome everyone back to the refurbished space. “I’ve always believed Warren Shire believed in the five ‘Rs’; roads, rates, rubbish, river and reading,” Mr Woodman joked at the morning tea. “The Library is a service

that is very important to the community,” he added. The facility, he believes, is a very important space for all locals. “It’s very important to the young ones in our community and, also, as a social place for everyone else. “I am very pleased to have

been involved in this project and look forward to hosting an official opening once the landscaping is completed in the next few weeks,” Mr Woodman said.

The works were funded through a $315,723 grant received from the State Library of NSW to improve the main library entrance, with a particular emphasis on meeting the needs of people living with disability, and people with prams. Ms Dimarzio-Bryan said she was thrilled to be asked to work on the redevelopment of the Library, but also nervous because it was an architecturally-awarded building. “We didn’t want to take away from the existing building, and needed to come-up with some really good solutions for access, but also address with a canopy and an awning, that suited the building.”

Ms Dimarzio-Bryan was so pleased to see her idea to use real timber beams out the front in the entrance went ahead, to tie into the existing exposed beams inside the building. Drainage was also a significant concern with the redesign, but Ms Dimarzio-Bryan and Mr Josephs, were elated the new awnings and down-pipes had withstood the more than 100 millimetres of rain on the night before the fi rst opening. “It’s looking pretty much exactly the way it was designed so, overall, I’m very pleased to see the fi nal fi nish,” Ms Dimarzio-Bryan enthused. “It’s great to see it all come together and will be fantastic once the landscaping is fi nished; it’s already looking amazing,” she concluded.

How to build a worm By MICHAEL CAMPBELL THE worm is a Caenorhabditis elegans. It’s just one millimetre in length, lives in your compost, and eats bacteria. For years scientists Brenner, Sulston and Horvitz studied this worm, from a single cell through to the fi nal adult form. They were the fi rst to do it, on an animal. They discovered: none of the adult cells were duplicates of the fi rst cell. In fact, at every splitting of the cells, from one to two, from two to four, and so on to 1,000 adult cells – every cell in every division was different to the one before. That is, the cells specialise as they divide.

Each adult cell still contains all the DNA of the fi rst cell, but most of the DNA will be switched off so that the adult cell can do a particular task. Which means, from the beginning, there is a set of instructions, written into the DNA, to produce, through multiple divisions, a target purpose for each adult cell. Worm ‘construction’ follows a coded design, prepared in advance by the One who “created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1 “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” Psalm 19:1 “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made” Psalm 139:14

Ron Higgins Eulogy “A man who cherished his family, above all else” July 4, 1949 to January 16, 2024 By CHRISTOPHER, ANTHONY, REBECCA, AND HELEN HIGGINS; DELIVERED BY CHRISTOPHER HIGGINS “LADIES and gentlemen, family and friends, we gather here today to remember and celebrate the life of a remarkable man, our Dad Ron, who touched the hearts of those fortunate enough to know him. Born on July 4, 1949, in Condobolin, Dad’s life was a journey marked by love, family, and countless adventures. Dad was a man who cherished his family above all else. His love for his wife, Helen, three children, and absolute pride in his 10 grandchildren, were evident to all who knew him. Family was the cornerstone of his life, and he poured his heart into creating lasting memories with those he held dear. He often shared the amusing story of how he arrived in Warren back in 1967, intending to work just one cotton picking season. Fate, however, had other plans when he met Helen, the love of his life. Their journey together was fi lled with joy, laughter, and even a few surprises, like the time he found himself sitting in the bathtub surrounded by fallen wall tiles after a heated argument with the ‘minister for war and fi nance’ when she slammed the bathroom door which shook the old tiles off the wall and into the bath with him. In later years, he proudly recounted the time his mother-in-law insisted that Mum didn’t realise how lucky she was to have found him. Speaking with many people about Dad over the last couple of weeks, has highlighted his mischievous personality. Just about everyone has an amusing story about an interaction with him. He loved a good practical joke and could be a gentle torment sometimes. Whether you are a relative from his early years, someone who knew him in Trangie, the Army, worked with him at Auscott or the Shire, or were just fortunate enough to know him as a very proud Warren community member, I encourage you all to continue to share those humorous stories at the wake. A couple of years ago, he showed me a funny tribute video on YouTube of a funeral where the family slipped a speaker into the closed coffi n with a recorded message from the deceased asking to be let out, that this was all a big mistake. Dad thought this would be a hilarious fi nal joke to play, but we thought we had years to prepare for it and we never got around to recording it. Dad’s sense of adventure

Vale Ron Higgins. PHOTO: SUPPLIED. led him and Mum to explore Europe with my wife and I in a camper van for a couple of months in 2008, creating many memories. One of my favourites, were when Dad and his soon-to-be daughter-inlaw spent hours hiding bags of chips from each other with growing frustrations. Just for the record, his love of Smiths’ Chips and Cokea-Cola are already a loved family legend, and we expect to continue finding hidden caches of both throughout the house and his shed over the next few months. For the record, we are up to eight bags of chips and six litres of Coke so far. Dad could come across as a classy traveller and he often said the best coffee he ever had was on the very posh ChampsÉlysées in Paris, although he almost always neglected to mention it was from the McDonalds there! More recently, he relished the experience of touring the Northern Territory on ‘the Ghan’ with Mum, indulging his love for travel, discovery, and sunrises with a baconand-egg roll in his hand. While Dad had initially aspired to join the Police Force, his dreams took a different turn due to his dodgy eyesight and the need to wear glasses. Undeterred, he found fulfillment in the Military Police, where he discovered a love for the Army and military history. His work journey took him to Trangie

stores, Auscott, and Warren Shire Council, where he dedicated 25 years of service. As a plumber with his own business for 35 years, looking around the church at his service, it is very humbling to see that Dad built not only pipelines, but also lasting connections with those around him. A man of diverse interests, Dad particularly enjoyed shooting and spent many nights spot-lighting for foxes along the Carinda Road with Mum to collect bounties that eventually paid for a deposit on 13 Bundemar Street where they recently celebrated an amazing 50 years of marriage. Early in their engagement, Dad also owned a Toyota Crown, although not his primary passion, it was a source of pride, and I don’t think he really ever got over the time Mum encountered a pig while they were out shooting and thought she should run it over instead of letting him shoot it. His work crawling under old houses led to many interesting situations. Like the time he met a brown snake and couldn’t move to get away so just laid still. When the snake started to curl up next to him for warmth, he vowed that he would lay there until one of them starved to death depending on the fact that he had plenty more reserves than the reptile did. As far as we know they both escaped unharmed. Our childhood saw 13 Bundemar Street become a menagerie of animals over the

years, but one of Dad’s most loved, if a little more unusual, pets was an orphaned emu named ‘Chook’; that bird’s antics never failed to lift his spirits. Dad often found solace in the simplicity of watching Chook in the backyard, a testament to his appreciation for life’s small joys. A favourite story of the family that came to light recently, with a few variations, is how Dad one afternoon laid an old stock whip across Rebecca’s shoulder at the tender age of about six and shouted “bang”; to this day she insists that she was whipped as a child. Personally, I don’t recollect her ever even getting yelled at when we were little, unlike Anthony and I. All the grandkids loved going to the movies with grandad. However, they unanimously agree that he fell asleep every single time once the lights went out. There is consensus amongst the smallest of them, that during this time, he defi nitely wasn’t parenting them properly. Dad’s commitment to community service was evident in his role as a Councillor, where he fought passionately for what he believed was right for the people of Warren. He was amazed and humbled by the support of the community, who elected him to this position, and he swore to our family, that he would always make it about the community and never his ego. A lover of sports, Dad at-

tended the 2000 Olympics and the Commonwealth Games in Brisbane, though he admitted to enjoying them more than he initially expected. His real passion for sport centred around cheering on his grandchildren from the sidelines of many netball, rugby, and league fields across the State. Within the family, Dad still holds the quickest time for the Higgins Family Burleigh Heads Beach sprint. Narrowly beating Anthony in a classic tortoise and hare situation, the loser on that day who spent most of the race showboating before leaving his fi nal sprint a little too late immediately launched an official appeal that has not been upheld, sorry ‘Ant’, looks like Dad gets to retire undefeated champion. In closing, I think we all know that Dad would want us to remember him not with sorrow, but with gratitude for the love, laughter, and memories he shared with us. His legacy lives on in the hearts of those who were touched by his kindness, generosity, and unwavering love for family, and in the beautiful faces of all those grandchildren. He set high standards and I hope that his children, his grandchildren and eventually his great grandchildren can also use such standards to guide their lives. May you rest in peace, Dad, surrounded by the warmth of the love you so freely gave during your time with us.”

Rumblings on the road; Mitchell Highway works, to improve safety

By HARRIET GILMORE THEY’RE a road safety feature known as “rumble-strips”, and they’re now being installed to reduce accidents in western NSW and the Central West. Work to improve driver awareness along 500 kilometres of the Mitchell Highway from Bourke to Orange began recently, with improvements starting between Nyngan and Nevertire last week set to continue along the highway until May. Approximately 800 kilometres of “Audio Tactile Line Marking (ATLM)” — rumble strips as they are more commonly known — are being installed by Transport for NSW along the centre and edge lines of this main western thoroughfare, and are expected to take almost four months to complete; with 300 kilometres of new line-mark-

ings also part of the project. First stage of the new line-marking between Nyngan and Nevertire, was completed last week, with the rumble strip installation kicking-off on Tuesday February 13. The works involve installing small, raised bumps along the edge and the centre-line of the road to alert drivers to the dangers of head-on collisions and off-road crashes. The rumble strips work by creating both noise and internal car vibration to warn that the vehicle is veering off the edge of the road or into the centre lane. Transport for NSW has warned that, with the work, delays of up to five minutes per site, can be expected along the Mitchell Highway. Crews will be working seven days a week, from 7am to 6pm, moving

frequently along the road corridor with mobile traffic control, so motorists are also being asked to be alert and patient, and slow-down when they approach the convoy, Regional Transport and Roads Minister, Jenny Aitchison said. “The safety of all road-users is our number one priority, and rumble strips are a highly-effective safety treatment, proven to reduce crashes by 15 to 25 per cent,” Ms Aitchison said. “The Mitchell Highway is a significant route for NSW travellers and freight operators connecting the central west to the northern region up to the Queensland border; providing that vibration effect if a vehicle leaves its travel lane, alerts the driver and provides time for them to correct their path to avoid a serious accident,” she added. State Member for Barwon, Roy Butler, welcomed the project as a means of making our roads safer: “Rumble strips are a relatively simple way of improving safety on a major highway,”. The Orange to Bourke project is part of the NSW Government’s $46 million Saving Lives Accelerated Program to install the ATLM on key regional and rural routes in the three years to 2026. Motorists are being urged to keep to the speed limits and follow the direction of traffic control and signs during the work periods.

Political News & Opinion COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK ral Member Federal arkes for Parkes

Parliament returns for 2024 LAST week marked the return of parliament for 2024. While the fi rst sitting week of the year was only three days, there was still plenty to do both in the House of Representatives and out. I enjoyed catching up with Keiley and Maddy from Narromine, and Mike from Broken Hill, as they attended the 2024 Heywire Regional Youth Summit on Tuesday, and it was great to meet with representatives from the Rural Locum Assistance Program, the Community Broadcasting Association of Australia and Mable: Disability and Aged Care throughout the week. It was also a privilege to attend a joint sitting of the house and the senate on Thursday, as we welcomed the Hon. James Marape, prime minister of Papua New Guinea, to parliament house. On Thursday evening I took the opportunity to speak in

the House of Representatives about my concerns for changes to the design of the weir at Wilcannia and the seeming lack of communication from the NSW government to the federal government. This year we have plenty of challenges ahead, but I look forward to working with my coalition colleagues as we continue the fight against the reckless decision making of the federal Labor government. As always, it is an honour to represent the Parkes electorate and I look forward to continuing to advocate on behalf of my constituents.

N2N Inland Rail project approved I WAS pleased to see the Narromine-to-Narrabri (N2N) section of the Inland Rail receive environmental approval from the federal government recently. While this approval is a positive step to getting the project back on track, I continue to question the federal Labor government’s commitment and understanding of the Inland Rail. This is a great project, but there has been a lot of uncertainty and unnecessary delay due to the actions of the current federal government. The NSW government gave the N2N project its own approval

PHOTO: PARKES ELECTORATE. 12 months ago; there has been no need to drag this out for as long as the federal government has. I again urge the federal government to signal its commitment to this magnificent piece of infrastructure and provide certainty to residents in the N2N section. It’s time to get on with the job.

Have your say: Australia Post AUSTRALIAN consumers and small businesses are being in-

vited to participate in a public consultation on the federal government’s plan to modernise Australia Post. The consultation comes after the government announced reforms in December 2023 to enable Australia Post to boost productivity, increase its focus on parcels, and improve longterm fi nancial sustainability. The implementation of key elements of the reforms require that performance standards regulations be amended to: f change the performance standards that Australia Post

is required to meet regarding the frequency and speed of mail delivery; f deregulate the Priority Mail service; and, f update the geographic classification used in the performance standards for retail outlets. The proposed changes are expected to be implemented in 2025, with draft regulations open for public consultation until the end of the month. To access the draft regulations and have your say, visit the department of infrastructure’s website.

Warren Cemetery expansion begins By HARRIET GILMORE WARREN Shire Council has commenced the next stage of expansion at the Warren Lawn Cemetery. These latest civil works will see the construction of around 240 new grave plots, including the revised design of 20 family plots. Once the plots have been constructed, a new irrigation system will be installed and new lawn established at the site. Warren Shire Council Town Services Manager, Raymond Burns, who is overseeing the project, said the expansion was required due to a current limited plot availability, with the family plots also being redesigned to make better use of the available space. “The old family sites were square with two plots on each side; the revised family sites are rectangular with four plots down each side and a garden area in the middle,” Mr Burns said. “The new design utilises the available space much better,” he added. He said that these changes, will more than double the capacity of the cemetery. “If we used the original design, we could only fit approximately 550 new grave-sites in the expansion. “With the new design, we will be able to fit more than 1200 into the space, if required,” Mr Burns said. The latest expansion is expected to take six to eight weeks to complete, with lawn establishment to follow. The works will not impact access to the existing cemetery areas. “Once the plots are completed, they will be available for sale. Council will advertise when they are available to purchase,” Mr Burns explained. The new plot expansion is in addition to other planned upgrades to the Warren Lawn Cemetery, including a refurbishment to the entrance gates worth more than $20,000, the recently completed re-sealing of the access road, and seating covering. The seating covering for both the Warren and Nevertire Cemetery, valued at more than $25,000, is expected to be installed in the coming months.

Council keen to have say in Regional Telecom’s Review By HARRIET GILMORE TELECOMMUNICATIONS are a central and key component of life in the bush in 2024, with locals encouraged to contribute to an upcoming review of services. The 2024 Regional Telecommunications Review kicks-off soon with rural, regional, and remote Australians encouraged to think about their communication needs before consultation begins in the coming months. Undertaken every three years, the Federal Government says the Review is an opportunity for people living and working in regional Australia to share their views and experiences using telecommunications services. But has much really improved since the last Review in 2021? In their 2021 Review submission, Warren Shire Council said that at least 50 percent or more of the entire Shire was a mobile telephone black spot. (See attached article) Warren Shire Council General Manager, Gary Woodman, believes there has been marginal improvements to pockets of the district since the last review, largely thanks to newly-installed Optus towers, but the majority of the community still experiences significant issues. “We plan to send a largely similar submission to the Review this year as we did in 2021, as a lot of the same problems still exist,” Mr Woodman said. Telstra continues to show little interest in improving communication for regional areas, like the Warren Shire, he said. He added that, while Optus has emerged in some parts like Nevertire, to gain any real benefits, people have had to change providers all together. He said this was also problematic, because of lack of service when travelling further afield. Mr Woodman revealed that Warren Shire Council will continue to make regular requests to Telstra to improve service in the region, and welcomed the Federal Government’s upcoming review. Public consultation across Australia is expected to commence in April, with dates and locations to be announced soon, and the fi nal report due to the Government in December. Former Western Australian Minister for Regional Development; Agriculture and Food, Alannah MacTiernan, has been appointed Chair of the Review Committee, which will be

supported by Kristy Sparrow, former Federal Minister, Fiona Nash, Dr Jessa Rogers, and Ian Kelly. Minister for Communications, Michelle Rowland said that the review played a vital role in assessing how well telecommunications worked in rural areas. “All Australians deserve access to quality communications service — no matter where they live or work,” Ms Rowlands said. “The Regional Telecommunications Review is an important opportunity for Australians living outside our major cities to share their experiences with Government and industry alike,” she added. Ms MacTiernan, she believes, is highly-qualified as a former Regional Development Minister in Western Australia who is also a passionate advocate for rural, regional and remote communities. “The Independent Review Committee also has the right experience and expertise to deliver a comprehensive assessment of the state of regional telecommunications in Australia. “I look forward to receiving the Committee’s final report at the end of this year, and I strongly encourage communities to have their say to ensure we get the best communications outcomes for rural and regional Australians,” Ms Rowlands concluded. In undertaking its Review, the Committee is charged with closely examining the barriers that restrict people in regional, rural, and remote parts of Australia from having equitable access to telecommunications services compared to those services available within urban areas. The Committee will also consider the unique needs of First Nations’ communities, the effectiveness of existing Government investment programs, the potential of emerging technologies, the Universal Services Obligations, and the suitability of telecommunications during emergency situations.

Comms problems little changed since 2021; Council to say in current Regional Review WARREN Council has stated that it does not intend to change much to its 2021 submission to the 2024 Regional Telecommunications Review; below is an abstract from the 2021 document:

“Council for many years has written to all concerned advising of the lack of mobile telephone coverage within the Warren Shire Local Government Area particularly on the Mitchell Highway, the Oxley Highway, Nevertire, Collie, the local used back road to Dubbo via the Wambianna Road (Gin Gin area) and the Mullengudgery Area on the boundary with Bogan Shire,” Council said at the time. “Many of us can remember the analogue era when the mobile telephone coverage using CDMA telephones provided almost 100 percent coverage of the Warren Shire Local Government Area. The digital age came along, and we lost most of the mobile telephone coverage. “Over time, the Warren Shire, where mobile telephone service is available, has been known as a ‘Telstra’ Shire. However, positive responses from Telstra lately to requests to improve the service have been mute. “Council is aware that a fi rm called Field Solutions Group is in the process of developing telecommunication towers at Nevertire, Mullengudgery and Gin Gin areas for fi xed wireless internet. Field Solutions Group have offered both Optus and Telstra the opportunity to install their mobile phone equipment on these proposed towers. At this stage Optus have taken up the offer under the Mobile Phone Black Spot Round 5 Program, but no response has been realised from Telstra. “This is an opportunity for Telstra to improve its mobile phone coverage a great deal within the Warren Shire local Government Area and would benefit the community, businesses and emergency services. Representations have been made to Telstra, however, again the lack of action is most concerning. “The question today now has to be posed, is that with Telstra in particular not showing much interest in participating in the Mobile Black Spot Program and there still being a need for Telstra to provide an appropriate telecommunications service to regional, rural and remote areas of Australia in accordance with legislation that this legislation should be used to force Telstra and other major telecommunication carriers to provide the same mobile telephone service that is being provided to our big city counterparts. This before it is too late, and the requirements of the Legislation no longer are applicable.”

Residents invited to comment on Accessibility and Inclusion Plan

Warren Shire Council is calling on people living with a disability, their families and carers to share their thoughts about life in Warren to help with their new Disability Inclusion Action Plan. PHOTO: SUPPLIED. By HARRIET GILMORE ENCOURAGING everyone to participate in our community, is the aim of Warren Shire Council’s Disability Inclusion Action Plan (DIAP) To help achieve this; residents and ratepayers are being invited to contribute to updating the Plan, to ensure it is accessible and inclusive for all locals. The Plan outlines the practical steps Council can put into place to break down barriers and promote access to services, information, and employment throughout the Shire. It will also be designed to help promote the rights of people living with disability. Warren Shire Council General Manager, Gary Woodman, said. He added that Council wants to update its existing Plan to

ensure it reflects the thoughts of people living with disability, their families and carers, in 2024 and beyond. “A Disability Inclusion Action Plan, tells Council how to make sure that people with disability can live comfortably as part of the community,” Mr Woodman said. “We want to know what will make our community better for people with disability and their families, and it’s time to update our existing Plan to ensure we are best catering for the needs of all community members, both now and into the future,” he added. People living with a disability, their families and carers, are encouraged to share their thoughts about life in Warren via a simple survey. To complete the survey, contact council.

Deadly infection risk warning from exposure to untreated, warm water By HARRIET GILMORE RISKS from a rare but deadly brain disease that is related to exposure to untreated water, are greater in the summer months, health officials warn. Western NSW Health District (WNSWLHD) is reminding the community about the risk of this infection from untreated or poorly-treated water, as the warm weather continues. Amoebic meningoencephalitis is an extremely rare brain infection, caused by an amoeba which lives in warm, fresh water and soil. While many people can have contact with the amoebas, only a small number develop serious illness. Initial symptoms of prima-

ry amoebic meningoencephalitis start from one to nine days after infection. These may include headache, fever, nausea, or vomiting. Later symptoms can include stiff neck, confusion, lack of attention to people and surroundings, loss of balance, seizures, and hallucinations. WNSWLHD Public Health Director, Priscilla Stanley, said that people shouldn’t be alarmed by primary amoebic meningoencephalitis, but in summer months, it did present a risk that can be avoided with some easy precautions. “Every summer, we remind communities that warm conditions that increase water temperatures, mean any unchlorinated water supply that seasonally exceeds 30 degrees

or continually exceeds 25 degrees, may be a risk,” Ms Stanley said. “Amoebic meningitis can occur if untreated water goes up someone’s nose, so people should be careful when they are around unchlorinated water; children and young people appear to be more susceptible than adults to this rare infection,” she added. This time of year, she added, is when people are at greatest risk. “The amoebas that cause primary amoebic meningoencephalitis live in warm, fresh water and soil, but the amoebas cannot survive in water that is clean, cool and adequately chlorinated. “At particular risk are people in rural areas who have

Turn on the lights! New LEDs for Victoria Oval

Better lighting on the way; the 20-year-old flood-lamps at Victoria Oval, are being replaced in the coming weeks with new, more energy-efficient and reliable LED lights. PHOTO: SUPPLIED.

By HARRIET GILMORE WORK will start in coming weeks on a $250,000 upgrade to the lights at Victoria Oval. The project will include removal of the more-than two-decade-old traditional metal-halide lamps, replacing them with stateof-the-art, “Dark Sky”-compliant LED (light-emitting diode) fittings. Warren Shire Council’s Town Services Manager, Raymond Burns said the new lights would not only improve the quality, reliability, and longevity of the lighting at the Oval, but the new fittings were also more energy-efficient.

“The new lighting project will cost more than $250,000, with $74,000 from the Infrastructure Reserves; $170,000 from Council’s General Funds, after receiving grant funding for another project to make the funding available; and a $10,000 contribution from the Warren Rugby Club,” Mr Burns said. The project is expected to take five to 10 days to complete, and will be carried-out by Rees Electrical, who also installed the lighting at the Carter Oval Sporting Precinct. Tom Noonan, President of the Warren Rugby Club — one of the primary users of Victoria Oval — said they were looking forward to the new lights, just in time for the pre-season. “The full Western Plains Rugby draw is still being fi nalised, but we hope to have a few night games locked in over the season to take advantage of the new lights,” Mr Nnoonan said. “The new lights will also be great for training, which will kick-off in the next few months,” he added. He said that recruitment for the new season will start with a social event. “We are hosting a meet-and-greet in a few weeks at the Golf Club for the men and women’s teams. “Whether you’re a seasoned player, new to town, or simply a supporter of rugby, come along next Sunday to meet the committee and learn more about what makes our club so special”. Mr Noonan pointed-out that the club will also be celebrating their 70th anniversary in 2024; with a great year ahead. “We are still fi nalising the plans, but a big day is planned for late June to celebrate all the Club has achieved since it fi rst formed in 1954. “There will be an evening event to celebrate, and we are hoping to play an ‘old boys’ game so, if there are any ex-players over 35 looking to pull the boots back on, get in touch,” he concluded.

their own tank, dam or bore water supply, such as those living on farms, and people with poorly maintained swimming pools,” Ms Stanley explained. She said that shallow wading pools are a particular risk if they have been left in the sun for a long time. Other places that can create an environment for the amoebas include lakes, rivers, dams, bores, tanks, garden hoses, natural hot springs, and spa and swimming pools that are poorly maintained, she said. But a few simple precautions can help avoiding infection, including not jumping or diving into warm fresh or untreated water, keeping your head out of the water in warm fresh water, thermal pools or spas,

maintaining chlorination in pools and spas, emptying and cleaning wading pools, and ensuring they dry in the sun after each use, and flushing warm water from hoses before allowing children to play.

If you are using unchlorinated water at home, from your own tank, bore or dam, avoid water in the nose, especially when bathing, showering or washing your face, and supervise children when playing with the hose or sprinkler and ensure they don’t squirt water in their noses. Anyone who is experiencing symptoms should seek immediate medical attention.
