ABOUT THE PROJECT
Orde Hill Reservoir
The Orde Hill Reservoir, located on the Willimingongon Creek, Mt Macedon has a capacity of 250 million litres. This reservoir is used to harvest and store water before it is transferred to Rosslynne Reservoir and/or the Graham Brock Reservoir, Woodend, where it is treated and distributed to customers as drinking water. On completion, the upgrade works will ensure Western Water meets ANGOLD guidelines for dam safety and the integrity of the Orde Hill reservoir will be improved and reduce the risk of dam failure.
