On this two (2) day tour we will be visiting sites across the Albany and Denmark region covering water source planning, estuarine catchment management, water sensitive urban design and water resource recovery. For something a little different, we have also decided to provide an introduction to the blue economy, highlighting some of the marine water and terrestrial water connections and introducing other industry opportunities like ocean energy. The tour will include a networking dinner on the first day and sundowner to finish off the tour on the second day.
