The National Capital Authority (NCA) advises that Yarralumla Bay is closed to all uses following a minor discharge of raw sewage.
The incident has been attended by NCA staff and lake management contractors, ACT Health, Environment Protection Agency, Roads ACT and ActewAGL.
The leak has now been stopped and investigation into its source of the leak is underway.
Water samples have been taken. A visual inspection appears to indicate the discharge has been contained to the Bay.
The NCA will continue to closely monitor and will re-open the area as soon as test results are received.

It seems Australia is safe for at least 2 years from the famed Super Trawler that was set to rape our seas. The Environmental Minister Tony Burke has quashed the trawlers chances with a ban. New laws were introduced to parliament today giving government more powers to protect our fisheries from companies intending to use the Abel Tasman such as Seafish Tasmania.
Main reasons for the change apart from public outcry are concerns over the trawlers ability to easily catch and kill marine animals such as Dolphins and Seals (Along with endangered Sharks). While many will no doubt know the chances of a ship this size returning to our waters come two years will be quite high it is reassuring to read that public outcry over the trawlers action was high on the governments agenda.
