Regional Services Poison Warning - Hawea River & Kennels Lane

Regional Services will be carrying out a poison operation on private properties between the Hawea River and Kennels Lane downstream of Camphill Road. Carrot bait containing Sodium Fluoroacetate (1080) will be applied by ground.

There will be a toxic application between 4th of August and the 15th of August 2014 (dependent on weather conditions).

Warning signs will be erected at all public access points to the treated area.

The public should note the following points:

• DO NOT enter this area without permission.
• DO NOT handle or remove carcasses, or baits.
• DO NOT allow children to wander unsupervised in this area.
• DO NOT allow dogs or pets to roam into the operational area as poisoned carcasses can be deadly to dogs.
• Treat all carcasses as toxic.
  
  

Signs will remain in place until the area is safe. Please treat the area with caution until then.
