Both stations are located south west of Lake Victoria. The Nampoo Station project involved watering two connected ephemeral wetlands, which cover 14.6 ha. A total of 170ML was used to flood the Nampoo wetlands. The Cliffhouse Station wetland covers approximately 3.3 ha with 27ML allocated for the inundation. It is estimated that these wetlands have not been inundated for 10-15 years.
