Water supply

Your water comes from the Murray River from four pumping stations at Swan Hill, Piangil, Nyah and Liparoo.

The Northern Mallee Pipeline is a 3,650 kilometre pipeline covering an area of 890,000 hectares. It was completed in 2004 to replace the old, inefficient channel system in the area to provide a more secure and healthier water supply.
