Fresh water savings

We will be saving 3 billion litres of fresh water every year for use in Gippsland!

By recycling 8 million litres of wastewater a day and selling it to Australian Paper for use in its industrial processes, Gippsland Water Factory will free up fresh water in the Latrobe/Moondarra system. About three billion litres (1200 Olympic-size swimming pools) of fresh water will be saved each year for use in Gippsland; these uses may be for environmental flows in Gippsland rivers, drinking, or to support further growth in the area.
