NSW EPA is seeking feedback on its statutory five-yearly review of the licences for Sydney Water’s 23 sewage treatment systems across Greater Sydney and the Illawarra.
The licences cover Sydney Water’s sewage treatment plants and the associated network of pipes and pumping stations that convey sewage from homes and businesses to those treatment plants.
NSW EPA Director Adam Gilligan said all environment protection licences are required to be reviewed every five years to ensure the licences are fit for purpose and reflect contemporary best practice and operating measures.
Feedback is sought by 12 June 2025.
