It’s wholly owned by the councils that constitute it.’Cr Williams said that in the short term the Marom project (which will expand the use of underground water), was without doubt the best way to bring extra water into the region.‘It buys us another nine years in which we get to look at whether the Dunoon Dam makes sense and stacks up,’ he said. Can we do more with recycled water? The population of the Ballina area is estimated at 40,000.
