Project Summary
The Christies Beach Wastewater Treatment Plant (CBWWTP) receives and treats wastewater from the local community and industry.
Since the plant was commissioned in the early 1970's the population of the region has increased and is expected to continue to grow over the next 25 years. To meet this expected population growth, SA Water is planning an upgrade to the plant.
In late 2005, SA Water consulted with interested groups and residents from the southern suburbs to understand their issues about wastewater treatment at Christies Beach. The issues identified were grouped into three categories, environment, social and economic.
Over recent months, SA Water has been working to identify the best way to upgrade the plant and address the issues. When complete, the project will deliver a number of benefits to the local community including:
-
Closure of the Noarlunga Downs sludge lagoons
-
Incorporation of best practice treatment technology
-
Enhanced plant sustainability
-
Landscaping improvements to the Christies Creek and coastal interface areas.
