Project overview
This project is expected to construct a distribution network for recycled water in the Bicheno region, including distribution pipelines and a pump station.
This will increase the availability of reliable recycled water, with the aim of initially providing an additional 64 ML per year of water.
The project will bring the existing recycled water system up to modern standards, maintain protections for the community and environment, and ensure the system will meet Bicheno’s needs for years to come.
