Sustainable Rural Water Use and Infrastructure Program (SRWUIP): New South Wales State Water Metering Scheme (including pilot)

The Sustainable Rural Water Use and Infrastructure Program (SRWUIP) is a $10 billion national program investing in rural water use, management and efficiency, including improved water knowledge and market reform, and water purchase for the environment. It consists of three main components: irrigation infrastructure projects (including those projects listed below); water purchase and supply measures. The majority of SRWUIP infrastructure funds are committed to projects in the Murray-Darling Basin for improving the operation of off-farm irrigation delivery systems and helping irrigators improve on-farm water use efficiency. The water savings generated from these projects are shared between the Australian Government for environmental use, and irrigators for consumptive use.
