Ballina's Most Wanted

Council's Water and Wastewater Team are asking our community to identify sewer offenders that are flushed down toilets and clog the system.

Poo, pee and paper are the good guys and are more than welcome to be flushed. But fats, wet wipes, earbuds, nappies, false teeth, plastic objects, sanitary items, colostomy bags and even underwear must be stopped, caught and convicted (or placed in the bin) before they enter your toilet.

The blockages caused by this most-wanted list can lead to serious environmental pollution, backing up of sewers into homes and health risks to our community.

Fixing these blockages can also cause expensive operational costs, which costs the ratepayer.

DON'T EVER FLUSH THESE DOWN THE LOO...
