<p>They aren't people fenced off, but the water seems non potable,

<p>"You must apply to the local government before taking water from
a stock route water facility. Taking water without an agreement or
permit is an offence", so I guess washing ones car will cost you!<br>

These seem to be paid for by Qld State Govt and provided by
the local <br>
council. They consist of a couple of water tanks, some
troughs and a <br>
holding yard. They seem to have the project name of
"Queensland Stock <br>
Route Water Facility" with a common site signage (stockman
on horse with <br>
sunset behind) and from nearest road direction finger sign.<br>
<br>
Each site/sign is appended with the local name/use. eg
"Chippaway Night <br>
Yard"<br>
<br>
I was just going to add as an area;<br>
amenity=watering_place<br>
name=(site if known)<br>
Operator=Queensland Stock Route Water Facility<br>

<div>Would that be the Operator, or would the Operator be
whichever Council?</div>

Strictly speaking it's the council. In fact the standard sign-age
has a sticky spot lower right for the council name. The Qld Govt
label stuff is upper right.<br>

<p>But for usefulness I'd expect something to join/append QSRWF to
the council operator name. The finger road-sign is 2 lines. The
site name followed by "Water Facility". The large sign near the
tanks are obviously a state govt that spell out QSRWF plus site
plus local council.</p>
<p>I'd suggest then that operator be (eg);<br>
"Balonne Shire Council - QSRWF"<br>
Actually left abbreviated</p>
<p>And the name tag be what is on the signs (eg);<br>
"Chippaway Water Facility"<br>
</p>
<p>A question for consensus then?<br>
</p>
<p>I think the govt data set isn't available to us. Bit hard to
navigate that, but it may be "CC4 waiver equivalent" if it is.
That's a red background in the data catalogue.<br>

They are all roughly the same size too. <br>
