Former Dandenong Treatment Plant - Rehabilitation and Redevelopment
Melbourne Water and VicUrban are planning a major contribution to the economic future of Dandenong by transforming land into Victoria’s newest business development, bringing more jobs to Dandenong and a boost to the local economy.
Dandenong LOGIS will be a large-scale commercial development on the former Dandenong treatment plant site just two kilometres south of Dandenong’s town centre.
Melbourne Water and VicUrban plan to invest up to $150 million in the rehabilitation and development of this key business location.
This 180 hectare former sewage treatment plant site has been vacant since treatment operations ceased in 1996.
In recent years, Melbourne Water has completed technical studies to find the most effective way to allow the land to be rehabilitated and available for reuse.
Melbourne Water is now seeking approval to begin rehabilitating the land so it can be released to meet the demand for commercial and industrial land in the region and thus keep Dandenong competitive as an industry centre.
To be developed in partnership by Melbourne Water and VicUrban, initial work will involve environmental rehabilitation of the site by Melbourne Water to meet regulatory, public, and business expectations.
The rehabilitation of the site will be undertaken by Melbourne Water in compliance with Environment Protection Authority Victoria (EPA Victoria) regulations and is expected to be completed in late 2008.
