Be a little careful up the Georges after heavy rain (like now). Late last year there were some issues at a treatment plant at Glenfield.
Look here

I live near ish to the area and didn't here of it. Was kept quiet I think!
A BIG WOOPS --> "150 mega litres was released"
150,000,000 Ltrs or about 3500 swimming pools of shite
this quote is also precious
"Q Is the Georges River contaminated?"
"Sydney Water tested the river at multiple locations following the incident. The tests are performed at Sydney Water’s NATA accredited laboratory. Testing results show that there are no longer signs of contamination above and below the Liverpool Weir. However, NSW Health recommends that people avoid primary contact activities, such as swimming, water skiing and jet ski riding in the Georges River for up to three days after rain."
Just don't dump shite into our river systems Sydney Water, would be a better solution!
