Centre of Excellence Invests in Australia's Water Quality

March 30, 2011

The need for a national framework for water recycling has been highlighted as a priority for the water industry in a recent funding announcement by the Australian Water Recycling Centre of Excellence.

The Australian Water Recycling Centre of Excellence has awarded $200,000 in funding to its first project - the development of a National Framework for water recycling. The framework will provide a consistent and efficient approach to validation, which does not compromise the safety of the water recycling process.

Announcing the funding today, Parliamentary Secretary for Sustainability and Urban Water, Senator the Hon Don Farell, said the project was an important investment in Australia's water security.
