We’re taking action on climate change to protect the natural resources that sustain us so Melbourne remains a great place to live.
We generate electricity by combusting biogas, captured from our sewage treatment lagoons and anaerobic digesters.
We are reimagining almost 2 kilometres of Eumemmerring Creek into a natural waterway from Doveton Avenue, Doveton through to Lace Street, Eumemmerring.
By understanding your flood risk and taking a few simple actions, you can be prepared for flooding.
Join us on Sunday 9 November from 10am-4pm at the Western Treatment Plant for a day packed with discovery, fun, and connection! From a Welcome to Country by Wadawurrung Traditional Owners, to behind-the-scenes bus tours and birdwatching in world-renowned wetlands, to digital games, historical walks, and kids’ entertainment - there’s something for everyone!
We're upgrading the Hawthorn East Retarding Basin, located next to Rathmines Reserve, to ensure a safe drainage system and prevent surrounding homes from flooding.
Our service performance updates show how we’re tracking against our planning and development service standards. The updates are designed to help inform planning and development applicants, developers, consultants, councils, government agencies and other authorities, and are part of our commitment to transparency.
If your development must include drainage or water quality works, follow these steps to make sure they meet our standards.
