WATER SUPPLY NETWORKHarvey Water is licensed to draw 133.7GL annually from Waroona, Drakesbrook, Logue Brook, Harvey and Wellington dams as well as the Wokalup Pipe-head. The irrigated area on the plain to the west of the Scarp is divided into three districts;
We also provide water for community purposes, industry and rural residential lot owners. These non-member services are provided via companies wholly owned by Harvey Water - Rural Water Services P/L and South West Industrial Water Services P/L. WATER FUTURESupplying water to the premium South West growing districts produces significant regional economic benefits, generating $100 million gross value annually from agriculture and horticulture.
Harvey Water's industry-leading approach to water use efficiency, innovative piping projects, water treatment operations and ongoing asset development, has allowed it to optimise its water delivery services, helping to facilitate the growth of an important agricultural sector and expand its customer base. We are constantly exploring additional water sources to supplement the network and counteract the impacts of a drying climate. This includes expanded catchments, renewable and recycled water, ground water and drainage water. Finding sustainable climate-independent water sources is integral to the longevity of the irrigation cooperative. Our capacity to offer non potable water to corporate customers has enabled Harvey Water to secure contracts to service some of the South West's largest industrial and mining operations. Flexible commercial models are developed to suit client requirements, including water infrastructure, water treatment, monitoring, construction, maintenance and supply. |
