Australian National Water Week begins on 18 October 2009 with a less than subtle hint on raiding coastal rivers
After all, the week is co- sponsored by the 40 year-old Australian Water Association which identifies itself as Australia's peak water industry body, having the largest – and most broadly based – membership, connecting professionals around the country and across all water-related disciplines. AWA has over 4,000 individual, and 700 corporate members nationally.
Created water supplies of course mean money to many of these companies and not just as sources of drinking/agricultural water.
The multinational Maunsell AECOM which currently employs the AWA president Peter Robinson is in the business of:
- Land, sea and air transportation
- Hydro and geothermal power generation, transmission and distribution
- Mining and heavy industry
- Natural resource management and rehabilitation
- Buildings, infrastructure construction and management
