                            The Rural Towns - Liquid Assets (RT-LA) program is delivering integrated salinity and water management for rural towns in the West Australian wheatbelt. The project will demonstrate how to control townsite salinity whilst managing local groundwater, surface runoff and waste water so that it may be turned into a resource.

                            Location of the four Regional Catchment Councils and the 16 participating towns
