In addition, we would like to thank each of the individuals and organisations that contributed to the Clearwater website and Clearwater Information Exchange.

Melbourne Water
Melbourne Water recognises Clearwater as a key component in its delivery of improved stormwater management and healthy waterways. In fact Melbourne Water has included Clearwater in its Waterways Plan 2008-9 - 2012-13 (2007), Corporate Plan and Rob Skinner played a key role at our Clearwater Revival event in November 2007. Clearwater's objective stated in its Strategic Plan 2007 to 'accelerate the uptake of sustainable urban water management' illustrates the broader role it is now taking up through partnerships with other agencies and possibly in time with other parts of Melbourne Water's business ie recycling and integrated urban water management. Clearwater engages with a range of external organisations in carrying out projects with their financial support.
