Council is pleased to announce it will be running another ‘Dump for Free’ weekend from Saturday 15 March 2025 to Sunday 16 March 2025 for Leeton Shire residents at the Leeton Landfill & Recycling Centre and Whitton Transfer Station.
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).
