Storage modification case studies
Through the Healthy HeadWaters Water Use Efficiency (HHWUE) project, the department contracted Cotton Catchment Communities CRC to deliver a storage modification project. The project developed whole farm water balances for participating irrigators, evaluated the costs and benefits of typical storage modifications and developed case studies to improve industry knowledge.
A selection of the case studies produced under this project is located below. To request further case studies, please contact the HHWUE project team on telephone (07) 4529 1321 or email hhwue@dnrm.qld.gov.au.
