Fully treated recycled water from Goulburn Valley Water’s (GVW) Broadford Wastewater Management Facility will be released into Sunday Creek over the next couple of weeks.
High levels of rainfall have limited the facility’s ability to reuse the wastewater, and as a result, storage lagoons are nearing capacity.
The water release will be operated under GVW’s EPA licence, with the facility to carefully monitor the activity. All water released is fully treated, meeting a minimum of Class C standards. It is expected that up to 4ml per day will be released into Sunday Creek.
