What we're doing
Increasing capacity of Cotter pumping station
ACTEW has already significantly enhanced the ACT and Queanbeyan water supply system by constructing the Cotter to Googong Bulk Transfer and by adding the Murrumbidgee River to the system. Work continues on optimising the amount of water that can be supplied from these sources, with projects underway to increase the pumping capacity and the capability to treat this water with a wider range of water quality conditions. This work will allow us to supply more water from the Cotter and Murrumbidgee more often.
