Currently Lake Burley Griffin remains closed although open in small pockets for commercial operations. In addition we have received advice the NCA have taken a sample today from which the results will be available Tuesday. In addition to today’s sample the NCA will take another sample on Monday which will allow for Wednesday results. This means between now and Wednesday we will receive 2 sets of results. Optimistic predictions suggest the lake will be opened mid to late next week.

As a result we have decided NOT to cancel or postpone at this stage.

As a large majority of the course was removed to prevent unnecessary damage from flooding one of our major considerations will be allowing enough time to replace the buoys. If in the event early to mid next week we still have not received signs the lake will be open we will then make the decision to postpone.
