Drought response desalination
We are seeking planning approval for the possible construction of a drought response desalination plant at Belmont. This is our insurance policy in case of unprecedented drought conditions.
Hunter River Estuary
We are developing a Hunter River Estuary Wastewater Masterplan to guide how wastewater from five wastewater treatment works is managed over the next 30 years.
Informed decisions guide how we respond
Understanding what our community values will inform our decisions around supply (where we get water from) and demand (how we use the water we have) options, and guide how we respond to drought.
Understanding our drought response
A drought response desalination plant at Belmont is our insurance policy if the Lower Hunter reaches critical water storage levels in severe drought conditions.
