The announcement from the Federal Government that $330Million will be spent to accelerate delivery of five Murray Darling Basin Plan projects was a welcome one.
The SDLAM projects were created as a part of the Murray-Darling Basin Plan to protect communities and agricultural production while still delivering outcomes for the environment. Failure to achieve the projects by 2024 places productive water and the communities that use it at risk.

Farewell reflections of time on MI Board
|
|
|
The Newstream caught up with our Chairman, Nayce Dalton, and Tony Sergi, who will both be retiring from the Board at the upcoming AGM.
|
|
|
Nayce joined the MI Board in 2013, when MI and the region were still recovering from the trauma of the 2012 floods. In the eight years since he has seen huge changes in the operations, culture and future direction of the business.
|
|
|
Tony (Tank) Sergi, has been a mainstay on the MI Board for the past 16 years. MI has been a huge and very important part of his life, so it was an extremely difficult decision to not stand again.
