Livingstone Shire Council’s Yeppoon Sewerage Treatment Plant has recently been upgraded to produce “Class A” recycled water for distribution to customers.
The council says it will be used largely for irrigation.
The council currently recycles approximately 60 per cent of the current sewage inflow to the Yeppoon STP, which is generally used for irrigation of golf courses, sporting fields, parks, public gardens and median strips.
The works have been funded via 50 per cent matched funding from the Australian Government’s Building Better Regions Fund which will assist Livingstone Shire Council to deliver the $2.716 million Yeppoon Recycled Water Augmentation Project.

Play equipment includes a universal access spinner, an all-abilities multi-swing, a basket swing and toddlers’ swings.
But on Wednesday he joined Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart and Member for Wide Bay Llew O Brien to inspect the progress of a $10m upgrade providing about a stack of new construction jobs at what was once the derelict Peregian Beach Bowls Club site. To see Kane Construction contractors on site, and all the fencing site up - they ve made a fair amount of progress despite all the wet weather, Mr Hare said. It s exciting to see another milestone has been achieved. The facility will provide greater flexibility in meeting the demand for hiring space and we hope it will become a central focus of Peregian Beach.
