How does South Gippsland Waters application relate to long-term planning for the regions water supplies?
The Gippsland Region Sustainable Water Strategy (GRSWS) will provide the policy and planning framework for securing water for towns, industry, the environment and agriculture for the next 50 years. The scope of the GRSWS is far beyond South Gippsland Water’s bulk entitlement amendment application. However the GRSWS may recognise the resulting improvement to urban water supplies if the bulk entitlement amendment application is approved by the Minister for Water.
