Council regulates sewerage and trade waste discharges to its sewerage system in accordance with the NSW Framework for Regulation of Sewerage and Trade Waste.
Sewerage systems are generally designed to cater for waste from domestic sources that are essentially of predictable strength and quality. Liquid trade wastes may exert much greater demands on sewerage systems than domestic sewage and, if uncontrolled, can pose serious problems to public health, worker safety, Council’s sewerage system and the environment.
The correct management of liquid trade waste helps to protect public health, employee safety, the environment, and Council’s sewerage system, as well as reducing waste and aiding in water conservation, water recycling and biosolids reuse.
Liquid trade waste is defined in the Local Government (General) Regulation 2021 as ‘all liquid waste other than sewage of a domestic nature’ i.e. wastewater from a hand wash basin, shower, bath, toilet or domestic laundry
Liquid trade waste includes non-domestic liquid waste discharges to council’s sewerage system from:
