The Shire of West Arthur is among 13 recipients to receive the Community Water Supplies Program grant that aims to support rural and remote communities to build climate resilience through improved water infrastructure.
The Shire was awarded $59,338 to install swipe card readers for secure water access and monitoring on the Darkan town standpipes whilst $26,027 was awarded for rainwater tanks to be connected to three shire buildings thereby reducing the Shire's reliance on scheme water and supporting irrigation.
