04 November 2011Remote and Indigenous communities can look forward to cleaner, safer drinking water, thanks to an enhanced Community Water Planner tool, developed to help assess and manage the risks in remote Australian community water supplies.

The Community Water Planner is an online tool developed by the National Health and Medical Council in conjunction with the National Water Commission. It enables remote and Indigenous communities to generate water safety plans tailored to their community.

The tool was developed by Arup, on behalf of the National Health and Medical Research Council (with the assistance of the National Water Commission).
