Pressure Cleaning around Gorokan
Council's Northern Lakes floodplain study identifies Gascoigne Road and Lett Street as areas of pronounced flood risk in Gorokan, and lists Lett Street, Leichhardt Street, Dudley Street and Malvina Parade among the larger roads affected. Overland water crossing a street carries silt with it and drops it on driveways as it slows.
Dried silt sits in the texture of concrete and in paver joints, where it holds moisture and gives algae a start. It comes away from sound concrete with a pressure clean; painted walls and timber need a gentler wash so the finish survives.
Permits and Central Coast Council rules
Gorokan is one of the suburbs around Lake Munmorah, Budgewoi Lake and the northern part of Tuggerah Lake whose overland flow runs into the Northern Lakes. Council records declining conditions at its monitoring sites on Budgewoi Lake despite years of catchment works. Letting polluting matter into a stormwater drain can be an offence under section 120 of the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997 (NSW), so runoff should be contained.
