The DRAFT Leeton Shire Community Strategic Plan – Leeton on the Go 2035 – is now available for review and comment, following endorsement at the December Ordinary Council Meeting.
Leeton sewerage system comprises a network of reticulation pipes, carrier mains, pressure mains, pumping stations and a treatment plant on the north eastern side of town. The system serves residential, commercial and two major industries in town. The collected sewage is pumped directly from two major pump stations directly to the Leeton Sewage Treatment Plant (STP), located in Fivebough Road.
Leeton Sewage Treatment Plant, now partially powered by solar, is currently based on a conventional biological trickling filter combined with an Extended Aeration Tank with a total hydraulic capacity of 14,400 EP (equivalent persons). The treated effluent is discharged into the Fivebough Wetland, under license from the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA).
