Overview

WC was engaged by Goulburn Valley Water to design a polishing component at the final stage of a sewerage treatment facility in Kilmore. The project involved designing an 8-cell vertical flow wetland to complete the treatment system before being discharged into the environment.

EPA conditions for water quality required a wet weather storage pond in case treated water was not up to standard and allowed further storage and a secondary treatment process.
