  • For results of recent monitoring of enterococcal levels in the Brisbane River by Brisbane City Council, go to: https://www.brisbane.qld.gov.au/clean-and-green/natural-environment-and-water/water/water-quality-monitoring .
  • SBSC members, LTS participants and volunteers are all encouraged to inform themselves of risk levels and make decisions accordingly. The Club respects your right not to participate in an event should you be concerned about water safety.
