Sunday 18 October

Premier Mike Rann and Minister for Water Security, Karlene Maywald today helped kick off National Water Week with a free community day at the construction site of Adelaide’s new $1.8 billion desalination plant at Port Stanvac.

Mr Rann says the desalination plant is being built on time, and on budget, and is due to be producing water by the end of next year.

“This plant will, by 2012, be capable of producing 50 per cent of the metropolitan Adelaide’s water supply.”
