Managing our water supply

The water we provide to our community comes from various sources, including groundwater, surface water, the Murray River, and the Grampians Headworks Storages, a major source of water that is fondly known as 'Headworks'.  Water from these sources gets to your home via a network of pipelines, headworks channels, water treatment plants, reservoirs and dams.
