Managing Our Water Resources
Jurisdiction: Victoria
Can water data help us understand and better manage our water resources and environment?
Integrated water management requires a collaborative approach to planning that brings together organisations that influence all elements of the water cycle, including waterways and bays, wastewater management, alternative and potable water supply, stormwater management and water treatment. It considers environment, social and economic benefits.
How can communities influence water cycle management in the setting of service levels and place-based outcomes?
