Firm leads treatment plant upgrade

Gosford Council has appointed engineering firm Cardno Pty Ltd as the project coordinator for an upgrade of Woy Woy Wastewater Treatment Plant.

The treatment plant will receive an upgrade of inlet works and an improvement in odour control and the bio-solids handling systems.

The Water and Sewer Directorate last year established an external panel of consultants to provide expert assistant as required for the three years to facilitate the timely delivery of the capital works program.

The council sought a project coordinator for the upgrade to support the project's delivery team and manage and coordinate the delivery of the project.

Cardno Pty Ltd will take the lead role for 23 months of the project.

The works are part of Council's Water and Sewer Directorate's investment of $100 million in water and waste water projects under the 2010-11 to 2013-14 Capital Works Program.
