We’re rehabilitating the Currie's Sewage Treatment Wetlands to improve environmental outcomes and support a healthier local ecosystem. This staged project will clean, rejuvenate and replant the wetland ponds to restore their natural treatment function and support the Currie community and environment long-term.

Work Location: Currie Sewage Treatment Plant (STP)
Purpose: Restore wetland lagoons to improve water quality and environmental outcomes
When: Starting September 2025, delivered in three stages
What to Expect:

• More vehicle and people activity near the site
• Some noise and dust during works
• No changes to your water or sewer services
• Increased odour at times

Benefits: Cleaner water, healthier wetlands, and long-term environmental protection for Currie
disruption; no changes to your water or sewer services.

Wetlands play a vital role in keeping our water clean. At Currie, the wetlands help treat wastewater by slowing it down and allowing plants and soil to naturally remove nutrients.

But over time, if wetlands are affected by increased flow, sludge build-up, and overgrown vegetation. When wetlands are overwhelmed, they can’t do their job properly — putting the local environment at risk.

By cleaning, restoring, and replanting the ponds, we’re helping the wetlands bounce back to full health, so they can support our environment and community for years to come.
