Hydro Tasmania and Marine and Safety Tasmania advise that low water levels have affected the availability of boat ramps at three lakes: Lake Echo, Lake King William and Woods Lake.

Lake Pedder is expected to reach its full water level and spill later today, for the first time since November 1988.

New pontoons are offering boating enthusiasts and anglers safer and more secure access to some of Tasmania’s favourite recreational and angling lakes. The three new pontoons at Jonah Bay (Arthurs Lake) and Brandum Bay (Great Lake) in Tasmania’s central highlands and at Lake Rosebery (Tullah) in Tasmania’s west are part of joint efforts by Hydro Tasmania and Marine and Safety Tasmania (MAST) to improve the safety and functionality of boating infrastructure at popular inland lakes.

Hydro Tasmania is Australia’s largest generator of renewable energy. Tasmanians are our owners, our most important customers, and the very people we were created to serve.

Lake Rosebery will reopen from 6pm Friday 7 March after eight weeks of response efforts following an oil spill in the Henry Bay area. Booms will remain in place around a very small section of Henry Bay but the boat ramp is now open to the public.

Hydro Tasmania advises that the only formally recognised boat ramp at Lake Gairdner will be closed temporarily from this weekend, as the result of scheduled power station maintenance.
