Sewer Pumping
Goulburn
A series of 17 sewage pumping stations collect sewage from sub-catchments within the city and transfer the sewage to the Waste Water Treatment Plant for treatment and reuse.
Approximately 4 megalitres of sewage per day is transferred to the Waste Water Treatment Plant via the pump stations. The pump stations have been constructed as the city has expanded. The first pump station was constructed in 1917, with the most recent being constructed in 2008. A number of the pump stations are located next to the Wollondilly River and Mulwaree Ponds.
Marulan
Eight sewage pump stations collect effluent in Marulan and transfer this to the treatment facility. The majority of Marulan is serviced by a common effluent drainage system whereby the household maintains a septic tank and the effluent is collected and treated.
The treatment facility consists of aeration followed by maturation. The treated effluent is irrigated onto Council operated grazing land.
