The project has delivered 40km of supply and distribution pipelines to around 30 farm properties with the capacity to expand to other properties subject to demand.
The project has increased water security in the Coolanie Plains on the Eyre Peninsula.
It will ensure peak usage demands can be reliably met. This will allow primary producers to increase lamb production by around 50 percent.
