Consultation has concluded


We're working with the NSW EPA through a voluntary remediation process to remediate a portion in the southwest corner of Greenhouse Park that has been found to be contaminated.

Our focus is to minimise the release of petroleum hydrocarbons and other items like coal tar and lubricating oils, which date back to the site’s former use as a tip.

Following endorsement by an independent site auditor, a Remedial Options Assessment was submitted to the EPA. We’re also sharing information with our community, to keep them informed about the steps we’re working through at the site and provide them with the opportunity to provide feedback as well.

A Remedial Action Plan is being prepared ahead of the design and construction phase for the site in 2023-2025. Over the coming months, an engineering consultant has been tasked by Council to prepare a Remedial Action Plan to address the contaminants in the southwest corner of the site.

The proposed concept design currently being investigated uses an interception method to capture the contaminants before they enter the waterway.

The area will be treated like a construction site with fencing and signage so there is no additional risk to community while this process is underway.
