Innovative Sewerage System To Recycle Water For Sports Grounds

Yarra Valley Water is hoping to pilot a neighbourhood treatment system that recycles water for use on drought-stricken parks and sports grounds when sewers are rolled out in parts of Manningham that are still using septic tanks. More than 4000 properties in Templestowe, Donvale and Wonga Park still have septic tanks - about two thirds of which are faulty and are polluting waterways, including the Yarra.
