Greater Western Water engaged with the Romsey community between 16 June to 31 July 2023 to hear its feedback on the upgrade to the Romsey Recycled Water Plant (Romsey RWP).

The report from this engagement will support our application to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) for a Development Licence at the plant.

Our project team has since identified an opportunity to deliver an additional winter storage at the plant as part of the construction phase of the project. This additional work would increase the plant’s storage space and better support the region’s growing population.

Our team is assessing the viability of achieving this better community outcome. These assessments have delayed our submission to the EPA for a Development Licence at the Romsey RWP. The project is still on track for construction to begin in November 2024.

We expect to submit the application by February 2024 and will provide a full engagement report to the community at this time.

An interim report is available here.
