Why do we need to save water? Why can Rous Water just build a new dam?
Rous Water’s long term plan includes a proposal to build a new dam on Rocky Creek near Dunoon. However, making sure that everyone is using water in a sustainable way is also part of our long-term planning. Saving water provides an alternative to building a new dam. 20.
