Integrated Water Cycle Management

The Integrated Water Cycle Management (IWCM) Strategy addresses two elements of the Best-Practice Management of the Water Supply and Sewerage Framework. It is a local water utility's 30-year strategy for the provision of appropriate, affordable, cost-effective and sustainable urban water services that meet community needs and protect public health and the environment. 

Preparation of the IWCM Strategy enables Council to comply with the NSW Government's Best-Practice Management of the Water Supply and Sewerage Framework. 

The development of Council's IWCM has followed the DI Water methodology outlined in the IWCM Strategy Check List (July 2014).
