The Western Treatment Plant does more than treat half of Melbourne’s sewage — it’s also a thriving ecosystem that supports internationally significant birdlife. Its nutrient-rich lagoons provide critical habitat for thousands of birds, including migratory shorebirds that travel over 10,000 km from places like Siberia, Alaska, and China to feed and rest. Through careful management of our treatment processes and water quality, we maintain this unique balance — protecting biodiversity while deliver

At the Western Treatment Plant, we treat half of Melbourne’s sewage through advanced processes to produce high-quality recycled water. This water helps grow fresh vegetables, irrigate parks and sports fields, and support Werribee South’s farming region. By recycling water, we’re protecting our drinking water and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come. | Melbourne Water

Our dams and reservoirs are super important to supply clean water across Melbourne. But these can also impact the biodiversity of our rivers and creeks. That's why we make 'environmental releases' from our dams and reservoirs to help support the species which call our waterways home 🐟 | Melbourne Water

With Melbourne’s population growing and storms becoming more intense, we need resilient infrastructure that works with nature. At Mill Park Lakes Reserve, we're upgrading the wetland to help filter stormwater, reduce flood risk, and support a healthier environment. Stage 1 is almost complete: sediment has been removed, wetlands reshaped, and drainage upgraded, setting the stage for the next phase of planting and revegetation.

By 2030, close to 6 million Melburnians will rely on our water systems daily. To meet this growing demand, we’re investing in smarter ways to manage water — including recycling wastewater for non-drinking use. Recycled water plays a key role in reducing pressure on our drinking supplies, supporting agriculture, helping to close the loop and future-proof our water cycle. | Melbourne Water

Melbourne’s water corporations are working together - not just to supply water to your taps, but to make the most of the water we use every day. After it goes down the drain inside your home, we screen, clean and treat it, so you can wash, flush and grow — while saving our precious drinking water. With Melbourne’s population expected to reach 8 million by 2051, we’re planning ahead to make sure there’s enough water for everyone. | Melbourne Water
