 This State and Federal Government funded project has the capacity to provide more than 3.8 billion litres of high quality recycled water annually. In addition to supplying existing customers, the project will provide a minimum of 1.3 billion litres each year to irrigate the Adelaide Park Lands.
The project provides a sustainable long-term solution for watering the Park Lands and can provide opportunities for the development of additional recycled water initiatives.
It will reinforce Adelaide’s position as a green city and a leader in water conservation. It will also contribute to a range of significant environmental benefits including:
- Reduced discharges of treated wastewater to the Gulf St Vincent
- Increasing the annual reuse of treated wastewater from the Glenelg Wastewater Treatment Plant by more than three times
- Improved health of the River Torrens and quality of the water in Torrens Lake.
