No Blue-Green Algae Alerts for Buronga, Merbein and Curlwaa

14 August 2026

There are no alerts for Buronga, Merbein (location used for Coomealla) or Curlwaa.

The risk of blue-green algal growth is very low across the Murray region due to cooler ambient temperatures and shorter daylight hours creating less favourable conditions for growth.

WMI Customer reminder

Customers are reminded that WMI does not guarantee the supply of water (either quantity or quality) at any time, as it is untreated and directly sourced from the River Murray. It is recommended that customers have water storage capacity of at least two weeks’ stock and garden needs. A water storage tank allows alternate water supply when irrigation water delivery is interrupted or when irrigation water quality has deteriorated. It also allows settling before use.

Landlords are required to inform their tenants of water delivery interruptions or deteriorating quality and assist by providing an alternate water supply.
