Annual Report 2007-2008 East Gippsland Water 2 HIGHLIGHTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS In its ongoing drive to meet the four key objectives outlined in its Corporate Plan, East Gippsland Water recorded some notable highlights and achievements during the reporting period in the following areas - Addressing bushfires and floods At the start of the year East Gippsland Water staff and contractors continued their efforts to address water quality and supply issues following the drought, bushfires and floods of the previous financial year. Emergency infrastructure, rapidly installed to clean bushfire-affected water from the Mitchell River, proved reliable and paid dividends with secure, high quality drinking water supplies maintained for some 17,000 customers. This success, together with customers’ water saving efforts, enabled any remaining water restrictions to be removed by the Corporation before the end of August 2007. It also meant significantly depleted water storages were replenished in time for the peak summer holiday season. In addition, East Gippsland Water staff, with help from contractors, worked fast to replace some 200 metres of pipeline under the Mitchell River, which was fractured by the force of the floods at the very end of June 2007. This pipeline, serving customers in Lindenow and Lindenow South, was replaced less than a month later. Securing high quality water for small towns East Gippsland Water commissioned three new water treatment plants and a pipeline as part of its commitment to ensure high quality drinking water supplies for the region’s smaller communities. New plants came into full-scale operation at Swifts Creek and Cann River, with the Hon Tim Holding MP, Minister for Water, opening the Buchan Water Treatment Plant and a 17 km pipeline connecting Nowa Nowa to Mitchell River water supplies. These projects marked completion of a $7.7 million program of initiatives, which also included commissioning of a new water treatment plant at Bemm River in 2006/07. Upgrading the Mitchell River supply system... Notable progress was made on a mammoth, $45 million program of works to secure high quality, long term water supplies for some 17,000 customers reliant on the Mitchell River. This is the largest project ever undertaken by the Corporation and takes into account predictions of climate change, with initiatives addressing water treatment, water storage and bulk transfer improvements. Work during the reporting period included completion of the design for a second off-stream water storage at Woodglen, capable of holding some 650 ML of water, with tenders invited for its construction. In addition the design and construct contract for a water treatment plant at Woodglen was tendered and is due to be awarded early in 2008/09. ...and open water storages The Corporation stepped up its program to cover or replace open water storages, recognising the significant benefits to be gained in protecting water quality, and reducing water loss through evaporation and leakage. Pioneering research involving the Corporation and CSIRO had demonstrated how covering open water storage basins dramatically reduced algal blooms and cut evaporation by 90%. Work carried out during the reporting period included installation of a new shadecloth cover over the Lindenow open water storage. On-site work also commenced on a major $1.5 million upgrade, which will include a plastic cover, to the Sunlakes storage, and continued in relation to lining and covering one of the water storages at Wy Yung. Elsewhere, construction work got underway to replace the Eagle Point open water storage, serving the Eagle Point and Paynesville areas, with two large, covered water storage tanks. Annual Report 2007-2008 East Gippsland Water 3 Far reaching Water Plan East Gippsland Water’s Water Plan 2008-2013 was approved by the Essential Services Commission, the water industry regulator, in July 2008 following consultation during the reporting period. It sets out the Corporation’s challenges, objectives, targets and prices for the five year period and, along with the Water Supply Demand Strategy, reiterates East Gippsland Water’s commitment to provide secure, high quality drinking water supplies. The Plan allows for a significant works program totalling some $67 million to upgrade, replace and construct new infrastructure. Successful business The Corporation recorded

  • Who Does What in Water in Gippsland 2021 Acknowledgement
    Who does what in water in Gippsland 2021 Acknowledgement The West Gippsland Catchment Management Authority would like to acknowledge and pay our respects to the Traditional Land Owners and other indigenous people within the catchment area: the Gunaikurnai, the Bunurong and Boon Wurrung, and the Wurundjeri peoples. We also recognise the contribution of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and organisations in Land and Natural Resource Management. Overview Across Gippsland there are a number of Government agencies and community groups that work together to protect our catchments and waterways and to manage water resources, supply and demand. Sometimes their boundaries overlap, but each organisation has quite a different role and offers different services. This brochure aims to inform members of the community of the major roles and responsibilities of each agency with respect to water. The following pages contain information about each organisation responsible for caring for water in the Gippsland region including their responsibilities, boundaries and contact details. Breakdown of Organisation types Water Catchment Southern Corporations Management Rural Water Authorities Agriculture Traditional Local Victoria Owners EPA Government Who does what in water 2020 / 1 Who does what Regional Urban Water Corporations • Collection of wastewater from residential and commercial customers • Treatment of wastewater before returning clean water to the environment • Supply potable water and wastewater services to homes in a city or town through a reticulated system • Manage and monitor potable water use in a city or town Southern Rural Water • Authorises and regulates licensed use of water from waterways, dams and bores for domestic and stock use, irrigation and commercial purposes • Manages large storages and surrounding recreation areas such as Blue Rock Lake, Cowwarr Weir and Glenmaggie Weir.
