Water theft on the rise
27 Nov 2006

Water theft is on the increase with thieves siphoning off thousands of litres from farm dams and rainwater tanks. Most at risk are large properties where vast tracts of land are left unattended and smaller "lifestyle" properties whose owners work in town during the week. Police intelligence officers believe water is being siphoned from dams in unlocked paddocks and tapped from rainwater tanks that are visible from roads.
