Back Morphetville New
 

Morphettville racecourse has a wetland/ASR system that captures, treats and stores flows form a local catchment. It is proposed to install an on-line basin on the Sturt River and pump to a biofiltration system also within the race track. A further network of wells will inject water around this location. A north-east splinter of the Para Fault is inferred to occur at the north-west corner of the Morphettville Racecourse. The majority of the required additional wells will therefore be located north-west of the racecourse.
