Submissions to the Parliamentary committee on Eyre Peninsula Water close this week.
Anyone wanting their perspective heard on the desalination proposals, water infrastructure needs, distribution challenges, or any other aspect of EP Water have until Friday to make a written submission to the Committee, or register an interest in presenting oral evidence to the Committee.
