Muswellbrook sewer treatment plant upgrade
The Muswellbrook Sewage Treatment Plant is nearing the end of its working life. With the extensive development that is occurring in the Muswellbrook urban area, and in response to a requirement on Council’s treatment plant licence issued by the Department of Environment and Climate Change (DECC), Council is currently investigating the options available to upgrade the wastewater treatment facility. This may involve improvement of the existing plant or construction of a new plant on the current site or a new site.
Council has commissioned studies into the current treatment process, current and projected flows, and feasibility of the existing and alternative sites. From these studies will come a concept plan for the future upgrade and/or reconstruction of the plant. This will be followed by detailed design and construction of the proposed upgrade works.
