Wastewater Pipeline Duplication in Rockingham
To help cater for expected growth and increase in wastewater flows we are installing a new 3.8km treated wastewater pipeline next to an existing pipeline in the City of Rockingham.
The pipeline, referred to as the Sepia Depression Ocean Outlet Landline (SDOOL), transports treated water from several wastewater treatment plants in the metropolitan area and other industries to the ocean outfall offshore from Point Peron.
