About the project

What we're doing 

We’re upgrading the Warragul wastewater treatment plant to meet the growing town’s needs into the future.

The upgrades include replacing ageing infrastructure to improve plant operation and increase reliability.

The works involve upgrading the aeration systems that add oxygen to treat the wastewater to improve the effectiveness of the treatment process.

We’re also replacing the dewatering system that removes water from the sludge and installing odour mitigation. 

Why we’re doing it

As Warragul grows, we need to ensure that the plant continues to operate efficiently and meets increasing demand. This upgrade will meet the town’s needs as it grows into the future.

The upgrade will also ensure we continue to meet our strict environmental care expectations.

When we’re doing it

Works are underway and expected to take around two years to complete.

We’ll provide more updates on timing as the project progresses.
