Robertson Sewerage Scheme Update (Includes Summary of EIS)
Last modified: May 29, 2008 - 11:01 AM
The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposed Robertson sewerage scheme was placed on public exhibition on 21 May 2008.
The proposed development assessed by the EIS comprises:
- a hybrid sewage collection system involving a low infiltration gravity system for the main catchment at Robertson, with three outlying catchments being served by pressure sewerage;
-
an enclosed sewage treatment plant to be located near the north western corner of the village;
-
an effluent management system incorporating a pipeline to transfer reclaimed water downstream of Wingecarribee Dam for storage and agricultural irrigation, with excess effluent being released to the Wingecarribee River during particularly wet periods.
The summary from the EIS is available for download as a pdf file.
