CLEANEST BEACHES IN STATE

It’s official – water quality at Newcastle’s beaches is the best in the state.
Hunter Water got the government’s Beachwatch program to crunch the numbers on 15 years of water testing, and found that Newcastle has had the cleanest beaches for the last 13 years.
More than 250 beaches from Sydney to the north coast are tested.
It comes amid plans for a $20-million disinfection system for the Burwood Beach Wastewater Plant.
