We have utilised Millewa Pumping’s services at a number of different locations over the last two years. Most recently Millewa attended a private property in the Riverland, assessed the site and advised on a suitable pump. The pump was delivered on time and the team setting up was very professional. The pump operated as predicted and we were able to successfully complete our project on time and on budget. Millewa have always been very flexible and respectful to work with. They have a great knowledge of their equipment and different ways to deliver water to tricky sites. Importantly they share our ethos of caring for the environment so that we can maintain a healthy working river for all. Natalie Stalenberg, Nature Foundation SA.

“They are truly professional, but they are also dedicated to what they do, and that makes the difference.”

Millewa Pumping has been working with us on our environmental watering program for the past three years. They have been our preferred service provider, because our sites are not straight forward pumping exercises and no job has been too hard or too small for them to do. One job required them creating a new system to draw water from a shallow source, which was done not only effectively but with enthusiasm. They have taught me a lot about the efficient pumping of water, have listened to what I need, and have spent the time to help train my staff to improve the effectiveness of our partnership. They are truly professional, but they are also dedicated to what they do, and that makes the difference.

“There is no doubt that the operation of the aerator pump installed by Millewa Pumping prevented multiple fish death events in a short, but critically important section of the Darling River .”

 

On behalf of DPI NSW Fisheries, I wish to thank Millewa pumping for their assistance in preventing escalation of fish death events that occurred in the Darling River near Menindee over summer of 2018-19. The fish deaths in nearby stretches of the Darling occurred due to hypoxia (loss of dissolved oxygen which is required by fish), linked sudden weather-driven mixing of stratified water-bodies.

On our request, Millewa pumping installed a pump system to aerate and disperse water of higher oxygen concentration through a section of key native fish habitat in the Darling River (from late January to late March, 2019). Analysis of water quality data collected through Summer and Autumn of 2019 demonstrated that the pump system you installed prevented fish deaths in the section of river. “
