The two-day conference starts on Thursday and the impact of the drought on Tamworth and ways to reduce that impact will feature in a number of the presentations.
The city was approached by Hunter H20 to be co-principal partner of the summit, and this week Tamworth Regional Council [TRC] councillors voted to take it on at a $5000 cost.
The theme of the conference this year is 'planning and building a resilient water future for NSW' and the goal is to connect professionals across the water industry.
