“We’ve been building pipeline networks in this region for nearly 20 years. The East Grampians Rural Pipeline Project will bring tremendous social and economic opportunity to the region. Our team is looking forward to partnering with both the local community and businesses in the delivery of the project.”

Additionally, Envirotech Water Solutions (a Mitchell Water Company), has commenced works on the Lake Fyans Pump Station, which will feed the EGRPP network.

Fun fact:
Mitchell’s Senior Estimator Paul Tschappeller’s father Tony built the original Lake Fyan’s Pump Station way back in 1961 as an apprentice. Tony went on to build many more gas and water pipelines over the years and finished his career with Mitchell’s on the Wimmera Mallee Pipeline Project in 2010.
