Our projects

Lostock Dam to Glennies Creek Dam Pipeline with Paterson River Connection

In Planning

In partnership with Water Infrastructure NSW, we’ve started the initial planning for the proposed two-way pipeline between Lostock Dam and Glennies Creek Dam. This project may also include a Paterson River pump station, which would transfer water to a new water treatment plant south of Paterson, and a new drinking water pipeline between Paterson and the Maitland region.

Quarterly community survey

Ongoing, new survey every three months

We’ve launched our quarterly community survey program in August 2022 to better understand the ways you use water and how we can improve the ways we serve you.

Stockton Land Restoration

Completed September 2022

The most recent remediation work at Stockton is now complete. We've removed more than 10,000 tonnes of contaminated waste, including asbestos, from the former council landfill site behind our seawall. Extensive tracts of bitou bush have been removed, and in total 28,000 native plants are being established. The land has been fenced to ensure community safety, stop illegal rubbish dumping, and aid re-vegetation.

Hunter River Estuary Wastewater Masterplan

Stage 3: What are the options?

The Hunter River, including its creeks and waterways, is central to our wellbeing. People use the river for boating, fishing and swimming. It provides water for farming and industry. It nourishes our wetlands and provides habitat for native plants and animals.
