Some members of the Yungngora people were removed to Beagle Bay Community as part of the Stolen Generation.

The power station has four 300kW Scania diesel engines and a 200kW solar photovoltaic array (fixed).

The bores pump the water from approximately 100 metres from below the ground level, despite the community being situated on the banks of the Fitzroy River.

The water has been recorded as coming out of the ground at between 50 and 60 degrees C. It is this condition which has prompted the installation of cooling towers.

Yungngora fields a team in the Central Kimberley Football League called the "Noonkanbah Blues".

All items are quite expensive compared to major centres but due to transport costs to remote locations.
