We separated the combined wastewater and stormwater systems in Woolloomooloo, Darlinghurst and Potts Point. These areas now have new pipes, the storm water flowing into Woolloomooloo Bay is cleaner and odours around the streets has significantly reduced.

Sydney Water is investigating a section of Whites Creek, Annandale as it is in need of repair. This work will help maintain the stormwater system and protect the local environment.

Like water utilities around the world, we are having an increasing issue with wet wipes in our wastewater system. London, New York and all Australian water utilities are facing the same problem.

This is a space for councils to get involved in Sydney Water's projects and activities.

North Head Wastewater Treatment Plant is the second largest of the wastewater treatment and water recycling plants in greater Sydney, the Blue Mountains and the Illawarra.

We know that some odour is involved in the work we do. If odour from the plant is a problem for you, please use our mapping tool to help report it.

This will help us understand how odour impacts you.
