SYDNEY - Australian authorities said on Friday they are focussed on protecting water plants, pumping stations, pipes and other infrastructure from intense bushfires surrounding Sydney, the country’s largest city.
Temperatures in New South Wales state are forecast to head back towards 40 degrees Celsius early next week, fuelling fires near Warragamba Dam, which provides water to about 80% of Sydney’s 5 million residents. Despite the widespread destruction, the state’s water infrastructure network has not been damaged, the spokesman said.
Large quantities of ash and burnt material could pose a threat to the quality of water in the dams if the fires are followed by heavy rain. A senior government minister said on Friday the government was now looking into providing wider relief.
