McCrae landslide media statement

Friday 17 January 2025

We’re investigating reports of water surfacing in McCrae, including leak detection in the area, analysis of water pressure and flow data, and water quality sampling at the affected sites.

The preliminary data from these tests indicate the water is not from South East Water’s network. 

We’re working closely with Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and the SES, to identify the cause of the landslip and take any necessary precautions to ensure the safety of the community.

As investigations progress, we‘ll continue to provide updates and partner with Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to address this matter promptly and effectively.
