What is the process for decommissioning irrigation channels on my land?
The irrigation channels for rural supply within the precinct will be decommissioned, to the satisfaction of the responsibility authority, as the precinct develops into an urban landscape. The decommissioning of any drains will need to be undertaken under both an umbrella Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between GMW and Council, and an MOU specific to the relevant subdivision proponent. In any circumstances where intersection or bridge works are required to cross GMW infrastructure, a ‘Construction and Use of Private Works Licence’ from GMW would be required prior to commencement of the works.
