Can the water harvested and stored in a rainwater tank funded by the National Solar Schools Program be for potable use, for example, drinking, showering or cooking?
No, the harvested rainwater cannot be for potable use. This requirement may be waived in special circumstances for schools in rural or remote areas where there is no mains water supply for potable use. To obtain this waiver, your school will need to contact us by email after registration. You must quote your school name and Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) number and explain why your school should be exempt from this condition.
