Mitchell general reserve – express interest in unallocated water

Current status

Expressions of interest for accessing unallocated water in the general reserve of the Mitchell water plan are open until 31 July 2025.

We need your help to understand the demand for unallocated water required to support new and existing industries (including agriculture and tourism) within the Mitchell water plan area.

If you’re located in the Mitchell water plan area (map) (PDF 2.6MB) and need water, let us know by completing the expressions of interest (EOI) form.

EOI process

Whilst an expression of interest can be made at any time, you are encouraged to submit your interest before 31 July 2025.

We will review all feedback received through EOIs. This information will help us better understand if there is sufficient interest in releasing unallocated water via an application process.
