<p>They aren't people fenced off, but the water seems non potable,
pumped from nearby dams etc. This website

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>

"Chippaway Water Facility"<br></p></div></blockquote><div>Sounds good!</div><div><br></div><div>One other question I was going to ask earlier then forgot about - is there any sort of reference number shown anywhere, or just the name?</div><div><br></div><div>If there is, ref=QSRWF xxx may work?<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div><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>
