Educating water users at field days
Field days are a great opportunity to talk to NRAR about your obligations as a water user and ask questions about how the water laws apply to you.
We can answer your questions and help you understand the next steps you may need to take.
We can talk to you about access licences, metering rules, constructing a bore or waterfront works and everything in between.
Come and speak to NRAR at a field day near you.
