Logue Brook Dam official reopening

The Liberal-National Government has fulfilled yet another election commitment and officially opened Logue Brook Dam for recreational use.

Premier Colin Barnett, Water Minister Dr Graham Jacobs and Murray-Wellington MLA Murray Cowper today reopened the dam for recreational use after it was closed by the previous government.

“The reopening will enable local residents and people throughout the State to again enjoy swimming, fishing and waterskiing at Logue Brook Dam,” Dr Jacobs said.

“Unlike the previous government which made decisions based on political convenience or emotional grounds, we have based our decision for the future of Logue Brook Dam after reviewing and assessing all the relevant facts.”

The dam is currently registering higher than average levels due to recent rains and has been assessed as safe for waterskiing and other activities.

About 30,000 people a year are expected to visit Logue Brook Dam.
