Update on New Sewerage Treatment Works
08 April 2021
Warren Shire Council is pleased to report the new Sewerage Treatment Works is progressing with over half the construction complete. The $6.1million investment is a significant development and part of a number of infrastructure upgrades designed to benefit the Warren Shire community.
Council engaged Gongues Construction through a tender process to lead the project, with local earthmovers and trade businesses to support construction, which includes a new Sewerage Pump Station, and the demolition of the old Sewerage Treatment Plant and refurbishment of the old site.
Designed by the NSW Government Public Works Advisory (PWA) the new works has an increased capacity of inflow and improved Peak Wet Weather Flow to allow for any stormwater infiltration into the sewerage network during heavy rainfall. The system also includes a designed overflow in the process to manage treated effluent levels and prevent damage to the treatment works in extreme wet weather.
The new site is scheduled to be complete by August 2021.
