Project is aimed at eliminating water quality incidents and reducing OH&S risks at the Warra WTP. Involves a substantial redevelopment and equipping with a greater degree of automation and monitoring equipment. Would be used as a proving ground and test bed for similar works at Bell , Jandowae and perhaps Condamine. OH&S risks would be reduced by installing appropriate platforms and walkways as well as a change to liquid chemicals properly bunded and monitored. This project is about providing for future renovation of the Dalby Evaporative pond complex. Liner replacement is a part of depreciation expenditure but this is about developing a reserve for future salt disposal.
