The NSW State Government’s Dam Safety Committee has advised the Armidale Dumaresq Council that the Dumaresq Dam wall is potentially unsafe, and in need of either demolition, lowering its height or structural strengthening. If this is the case, then a credible engineering assessment must have been carried out, upon which this advice has been given. I hope this report will be made public so that we can be reassured that the NSW Government is not over reacting to two years of unprecedented rainfall.
