Nominations open for the 2012 Prime Minister’s Water Wise Award

Commercial and industrial companies that can demonstrate recent water savings are encouraged to nominate for the 2012 Prime Minister’s Water Wise Award. The Award is now in its third year and recognises the significant savings in water use achieved by businesses in the commercial and industrial sectors. These sectors, on average, use around 15 to 20 per cent of urban water in Australia. Greater water efficiency in commercial and industrial operations takes pressure off fresh water supplies in urban and regional areas. Nominations will close on Friday 20 July 2012.
