$500,000 to Trangie-Nevertire Scheme for Pilot project. Click here for more information. The Australian Government will provide funding to support the development of a modernisation plan for the Trangie-Nevertire irrigation supply scheme in the Macquarie Valley. In the Trangie-Nevertire irrigation supply scheme, where there is around 73,000Mls in entitlements, it is estimated that there is the potential to make water savings of up to 25,500 Mls or 35% through delivery system upgrades. In this case, funding of up to $500,000 will be available to conduct studies to assess and identify the potential for water savings through infrastructure upgrades, investigate potential water savings by matching land use to factors such as soil type, and matching on farm water deliver infrastructure to land use capability and crop type. Funding will be subject to the proposal meeting the programme requirements, as detailed in the Planning Assistance Guidelines.
