Recent State Government approval of the Hinze Dam Stage 3 is another watershed in the proposed $395 million project’s progress.

The Coordinator-General has completed the dam’s environmental impact statement (EIS) process and approvals report, marking another vital step towards boosting the city’s water supply and ensuring future flood mitigation.

Council now is anticipating approval from the Commonwealth Department of Environment and Water, which would allow the project to proceed.

The Federal Government’s green light, before the end of the year, would mean the dual benefits of flood mitigation and increased dam capacity could be realised by late 2010.

The project has been subject to stringent environmental approvals and thorough community consultation
