Harvey Water recently invited firms to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) for the design of a piped irrigation system for the Collie River Irrigation District (CRID).
The CRID, largely in Dardanup Shire, comprises of over 200 kilometres of open channels. Some of the channels are over 80 years old with around 30% of water passing through these channels being lost to leakage, seepage, evaporation, or inefficient delivery practices.
Upon reaching financial close, the CRID Piping Project would see the delivery of significant on-farm efficiencies and opportunities for agriculture and horticulture through the modernisation of the last remaining open channel area in the irrigated district stretching from Waroona to Dardanup.
Harvey Water received interest from a strong field of EOI applicants seeking to tender for the design and engineering of CRID Piping Project contract. Collie Water and Harvey Water have shortlisted the following teams (alphabetically):
Harvey Water’s CEO, Bradd Hamersley, commented “each of the firms shortlisted bring a strong pedigree in irrigation and mechanical infrastructure, we were pleased to see organisations with a strong West Australian and local presence participate”.
The next stage of the CRID Piping Project will see these shortlisted firms invited to submit a proposal for the design scope.
