Regional Leakage Reduction Program - Local Water Utility Projects

Who can apply

Department of Planning and Environment lists this program as open to the following kinds of applicant. It is a starting filter, not the full eligibility test, and the guidelines on the official page are what decide it.

What the program funds

This program supports Local Water Utilities to reduce Non Revenue Water in regional NSW. Selected projects are co-funded with Local Water Utilities in the areas of capacity building, pressure management, leakage control and metering. The Regional Leakage Reduction Program aims to reduce network leakage across regional NSW by finding leaks in supply networks and by improving infrastructure and Local Water Utilities capability to maintain leakage reductions achieved.

How to apply

Applications for Regional Leakage Reduction Program - Local Water Utility Projects are made through Department of Planning and Environment, not through GrantWindow. We do not take applications, charge a fee or act as an intermediary, and any site that offers to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look.

Applications close in April 2023. Government grant portals are busiest on the final day and several of them close on the stroke of the deadline, so the practical advice is to submit a day early.

This round is closed. Many Australian grant programs run again, and a closed program is the reason the alert list exists: we watch this page nightly and tell the list the day it reopens.
