improve network reliability, respond to climate change, reduce the frequency of water restrictions and build capacity in our systems to enable social housing and meet new development projections.”\n“Within the approved capital investment of $1.2 billion, we will prioritise the most critical projects, while other works will need to be deferred beyond 2030 and for this, we are

Tasmanians contributing through surveys, community events, panels, industry workshops and targeted discussions.\n“The message from the community was clear: Tasmanians expect reliable services, healthy waterways, secure water supplies and greater control over their water and sewerage bills, and they also told us that delaying necessary investment is neither responsible nor fair.\n  Source:

ensure additional support is available for customers who need it most.”\nTasWater said the determination does not change the underlying challenges facing Tasmanians’ water and sewerage infrastructure.\n“Our assets are ageing, and without sustained investment the risk of system failures, bursts, environmental harm and service interruptions will continue to grow,” Mr Ingham said.\n“\nOur PSP5 proposal outlined the critical need for investment to\nachieve environmental compliance, improve network reliability, respond to climate change, reduce the frequency of water restrictions and build capacity in our systems to enable social housing and meet new development projections.”\n“Within the approved capital investment of $1.2 billion, we will prioritise the most critical projects, while other works will need to be deferred beyond 2030 and for this, we are sorry,” Mr Ingham said.\n  Source: `pages/media-releases-index.html
