Fraser Anning and Leon Ashby will be flying around and showing contour maps of 3 proposed water diversion schemes

1 – Bradfield (Hells Gate to Muttaburra & Aramac) via Pentland

2 – Walsh, Tate, Einasleigh, Gilbert  Rivers diverted to Richmond

3 – Extension of Burdekin Dam (5 x current volume)

It will be the first explanation of how 3 times the amount of water that is used for irrigation in the Murray Darling System could be diverted and or stored in North Qld.

The MDB system has 10,000 GL irrigation which produces $22 billion per year.

North Qld could look to have 30,000 GL  irrigate approx 3,000,000 Ha of land extra.

We believe in excess of $50 Billion could be generated each year from these diversion systems

There are numerous dam sites and places where irrigation farms can be set up.

We look forward to hearing what locals in each area would like to see built and where they believe it can be the best benefit.
