ABOUT THE PROJECT

Gisborne Recycled Water Plant Lagoon 1

Insufficient capacity is available at the Gisborne RWP to store high flows to the RWP that occur after high-rainfall events. The project works include for design and construction works to convert Maturation Lagoon 1 (MAT1) into a wet-weather retention basin, including installation of an impermeable liner and associated works. The project’s intention is to convert Lagoon 1 into an EPA compliant wet-weather retention basin, which would temporarily hold screened or unscreened raw sewage wet-weather sewage inflows, before returning the stored flows to the head of the plant for treatment.
