PIRSA - Water Intensive Development www.pir.sa.gov.au/wid

South Australia is committed to sustainable industry development. PIRSA works in collaboration with other South Australian government agencies to ensure that our vast natural resources of land and water are managed effectively so that they can be made available for economic activity while ensuring that our natural environment is managed on a sustainable and viable basis.

The PIRSA Water Intensive Development Website provides information to assist developers in the preparation of development applications and business plans; including background information on the various development approval processes, maps identifying the resources available at potential locations and numerous links to the agencies that implement the various aspects of the development approval process.

How can the PIRSA Water Intensive Development site assist you?

If you are seeking information about resources and investment opportunities for irrigated agricultural industries in South Australia the site contains maps, links and contacts for each State region.

If you are seeking information or assistance with government policies, approvals and licences required for irrigated agricultural development, the site provides an overview of the development process including information relating to production, water, and infrastructure.

An example of the type of information provided within the site in more detail includes transparent explanation of the development processes required for irrigated agricultural development such as the flow chart below which provides an overview of the steps of a typical irrigated development approval process.
