This project is a world-first, catchment-scale, experimental test of the benefits of new stormwater treatment approaches to stream health. The project, a collaboration with Melbourne Water and the Shire of Yarra Ranges, integrates river, urban stormwater and water resource management for multiple benefits. It should accelerate the uptake of smart, sustainable technologies in stormwater use and management, and identify better investment strategies for urban water and river management. The robust testing of the effect of new treatment design objectives by a catchment-scale experiment will have a strong impact on research in stream ecology and urban water management.

这个项目是世界上第一个集水区规模的试验，测试新的雨水处理方法对河流健康的好处。该项目是与墨尔本水务公司和雅拉山脉郡的合作项目，将河流、城市雨水和水资源管理整合在一起，实现多种效益。它应该加快在雨水利用和管理中采用智能、可持续技术，并确定更好的城市水和河流管理投资战略。通过流域规模的实验对新的处理设计目标的效果进行强有力的测试，将对河流生态学和城市水管理的研究产生重大影响。
