Clean water for a clear future

Communities around Australia and the rest of the world are looking to more sustainable sources of water. ACTEW and the ACT Government are committed to address responsibly the effects of climate change. We cannot predict the beginning and end to a drought, but we need to plan for low inflows going forward.

The Water Purification Scheme is an option that does not significantly rely on rainfall to help meet our water needs. London. California. Singapore. All these global destinations enjoy the benefits of purified water. So too can Canberra.

Where water is concerned, what is important is not its history but its quality. At all times, ACTEW will ensure Canberrans will continue to enjoy the high quality water we have had for years.
