Sydney Harbour West Wastewater Collection and Treatment

in progress

The Sydney Harbour West Wastewater Collection and Treatment Project (the project) involves the construction of wastewater treatment and collection infrastructure to support CBRM’s compliance with the federal Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations (WSER) in the Sydney Harbour West Sewer shed (the Sewer she) and the community of New Victoria. The project involves the construction of two secondary wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) as well as additions, upgrades and repairs to existing collection system to enhance long-term reliability and to intercept and divert wastewater for secondary treatment prior to discharge into the west end of Sydney Harbour. The Project will comply with federal WSER by collecting and treating wastewater flows generated in communities located within the Sewer shed, including Coxheath, Sydney River, Westmount and Edwardsville, in addition to the community of New Victoria.
