Adelaide’s main source of water comes from the River Murray and the Mount Lofty catchment area and connects to the reticulation system. Urban stormwater is a major input to surface water with a number of natural creeks discharging to stormwater drains. Although the major source of water comes from the surface water, ground water is also vital resource. Rising groundwater levels, dry land salinity and droughts are major problems in Adelaide. This presentation offers solution to these problems.
