Proposal description

The proposed development will involve the installation of a 300,000L rainwater buffer tank (primarily within Lease Area L2992), installation of a new bore (on Lot 146), associated pipework and concrete bunding for the purpose of achieving improved wastewater management in accordance with the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation (‘DWER’) License L9123/2018/2.

The proposed development will allow the wastewater generated at the Saleyards to be directed to a specially designed filtration and separation system. The catchment areas encompass the existing saleyards and the sedimentation system (‘SST’). Each catchment is enclosed by bunding to mitigate inflow from the surrounding overland flow path, adhering to the requirements outlined in the Licence conditions for a Controlled Drainage Area.

The wastewater will be collected in the existing eastward sumps and will be transported via gravity to the storage system through piping calibrated for a 1 in 5-year (5-minute duration) storm event.
