Residents near the Rookwood Weir project have slammed the lack of communication between landholders and SunWater over the impacts this mammoth project has on them and their properties.
Grazier Ann Kirk has suffered through the driest period she’s seen in 46 years and has lost one of her two irrigation pivots to the weir.
She needs to put a new pump into the Fitzroy River so she can use her land but can’t know where to place it because she hasn’t been informed of how high the water level will go to.
“I don’t know why they can’t tell us, because they’ve done all the hydrology,” Ms Kirk said.
