Sydney Water is developing a new Hawkesbury-Nepean catchment, hydrodynamic and river system model. This new model will inform wastewater infrastructure investment decisions for Sydney’s northwest and south west growth sectors. The modelling is being undertaken by Sinclair Knight Merz (SKM) in partnership with BMT WBM, eWater CRC and CSIRO.
A pilot modelling phase has been completed and simulates the hydrology, hydraulics and biochemical processes to determine the water quality benefits and impacts resulting from various waste water treatment environmental flow, water sensitive urban design and land-use change scenarios.
