Eligibility criteria and conditions apply to all incentives.

Applicants may submit an Expression of Interest at any time throughout the year. Only submit an Expression of Interest when ready to do the works.

Incentives are not guaranteed to all Expression of Interest applications submitted.

Expressions of Interest are assessed based on the potential of the proposed works to reduce the environmental impact of irrigation; by considering the salinity benefit and the water use efficiency gains of the proposed works.

These incentives apply only to works not funded from any other source.
