Barwon Water is hosting an information session to update the community on the Barwon Downs borefield licence renewal application.
The borefield is located in the Otway Ranges and is a crucial water supply source for Geelong, the Surf Coast, Bellarine Peninsula and parts of the Golden Plains Shire during prolonged dry periods.
The borefield is operated under a licence from Southern Rural Water. The current licence was granted in 2004 and is due for renewal in June, 2019.
To ensure the 2019 licence renewal is supported by good science, Barwon Water, in consultation with the community, has undertaken a number of technical studies to address community concerns and knowledge gaps.
The information session will highlight key findings of these studies and the project team will be available to answer questions.
All feedback will be used in the development of the 2019 licence renewal application.
