Waterproofing Eastern Adelaide - Tusmore Park Biofilter Treatment
Consultation has concluded
Waterproofing Eastern Adelaide is a multi-Council project funded by Commonwealth Government and Natural Resource Management Board to harvest and treat stormwater during winter, store in underground aquifers, and recover it for use in summer for irrigating open spaces. The Councils involved invite you to help design a water treatment site in Tusmore Park.
