Participants on the Uralla Shire Council water supply are advised that arsenic contamination has been detected in the town’s water. Council is advising locals to drink bottled water until the levels can be lowered.

The Commission recommends trainers in the area also provide their greyhounds with bottled water to avoid breaching the arsenic threshold and withhold from nominating greyhounds to race if they have any concerns.
