The Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning and rural water corporations have developed this initiative, which will make it easier, faster and cheaper to apply for licences to build water bores for domestic and stock use, investigation and observation.
Applications will be automatically processes and in most cases licences will be issued on the spot. Fees for online application will be around 50% less than for a paper application.
The new online application service is now live at https://mywater.waterregister.vic.gov.au/
