Working in Riverina

What the ground is like, and who owns what.

The Riverina is irrigation country, and the subsurface tells that story: Murrumbidgee Irrigation channels and pipelines around Griffith and Leeton, Coleambally Irrigation to the south, the Riverina Water County Council trunk mains around Wagga Wagga and a network of private farm pipelines that appear on no public plan. Wagga Wagga itself is a regional city with the Kapooka and Forest Hill defence bases, Charles Sturt University and the hospital precinct, each with large private networks.

Essential Energy supplies the electricity, Riverina Water County Council the water around Wagga, Griffith and Leeton councils their own water and sewer, and Wagga Wagga City and the shire councils the stormwater and sewer. The Hume and Sturt highways, the Olympic Highway and the Main South and Inland Rail lines are Transport for NSW and ARTC corridors. Ground is alluvial plain along the Murrumbidgee, which reads well on radar where it is dry and poorly where irrigated.

FAQ

Utility locating in Riverina: common questions.

Can you locate irrigation pipelines and channels?

Yes. Murrumbidgee Irrigation, Coleambally Irrigation and private farm pipelines are traced with EM where a tracer wire or metal pipe exists, found by radar in dry alluvium and proven by potholing where the design needs a depth.

Who supplies the services in Wagga Wagga?

Essential Energy for electricity, Riverina Water County Council for water, Wagga Wagga City Council for sewer and stormwater, Telstra and NBN Co for communications, with Transport for NSW assets along the highways and the rail line.

Do you work on the defence bases and the university?

Yes, subject to the site's own access and security arrangements. Private campus networks are located from the owner's drawings and a full field sweep, and reported to AS 5488-2022.

How is regional travel priced?

Riverina work is scheduled in runs so several sites share one mobilisation. Ask for a quote with the site addresses and we will group them where we can.
