| Description | | The Wodonga Wastewater Upgrade Project involves the design, construction and operation of a new wastewater water treatment plant in order to meet environmental performance and effluent re-use requirements.
The upgrade also addresses the need to provide additional wastewater treatment capacity to effectively treat and manage the current and future needs of the Wodonga and outer areas. Domestic and tradewaste customers of the Authority are receiving a better quality service.
In December 2000 North East Region Water Authority (NERWA) contracted PURAC Pty Ltd for the design, building and operation of upgraded wastewater facilities. The contract is for a ten-year term, with two additional terms of five years at the Authority’s discretion. The facility has been operational since July 2003.
A change in control of the private contractor was approved by the Authority in 2005.
This was the first of the Non Metropolitan Urban Water projects to be executed under the Partnerships Victoria policy. |
