  • Mendooran WTP Concept Design and Specification for Small Work Packages
    1 Introduction City Water Technology (CWT) is pleased to submit the following proposal to Warrumbungle Shire Council for upgrade works at Mendooran Water Treatment Plant. This proposal outlines the scope of work for the concept design and technical specification of several upgrade packages. It should be noted that in 2015, CWT performed a plant audit on Mendooran WTP for NSW Health. This audit addressed design limitations and provided several recommendations that can be re-evaluated in this project. 1.1 Background The township of Mendooran forms part of the Warrumbungle Shire Council (WSC) local government area. The Mendooran WTP supplies treated water to the Mendooran and Coolabah areas. The plant was built in 2009 and has a capacity of ~1.0 ML/day. Water is pumped from Castlereagh River and backup bores to feed the WTP, where the major treatment processes of the plant are the following: c Aeration (cascade); c Manganese & iron removal with potassium permanganate (KMnO4); c Coagulation with polyaluminium chloride (PACl); c Settling in sedimentation lagoons; c Filtration using coal/sand gravity filters; c Disinfection using liquid chlorine (NaOCl); and c Fluoridation. In 2017, a boiled water alert was issued from NSW Health for Mendooran and neighbouring Coolabah region due to consistent E-coli detections. It was discovered that the current WTP has several operational issues including; c Insufficient remote control, automation and dosing capabilities; c Insufficient data collection and trending; c WTP design deficiencies; and c Insufficient barriers to prevent future water incidents. The following proposal outlines the project methodology, deliverables and fees to undertake the work as specified in the scope to rectify and improve the operation of the WTP.

  • Trip Notes As at 29 November 2020 by CWC Sub-Committee, Mudgee Bushwalking and Bike Riding Club Inc. 1. Mudgee to Gulgong
    Trip notes as at 29 November 2020 By CWC sub-committee, Mudgee Bushwalking and Bike Riding Club Inc. 1. Mudgee to Gulgong (30 Km) Cycle out of town in a westerly direction along the Castlereagh Highway. About 2.4 kilometres from the Post Office turn right. Cycle along the quiet Wilbetree Road with its pastoral landscape of early settlement along the Cudgegong River. You will cross the Wilbetree Bridge (9.4KM) and continue straight. The sealed road will soon change to gravel. At a Tee intersection turn left (18.7 km) along the Canadian Lead Road, an old gold mining landscape. This gravel road will continue right to Gulgong. At the next Tee intersection, with Mayne Street (28km) turn left and cycle up to the shops of Gulgong. At Herbert Street intersection turn left and travel one block to the Post Office. Stroll around the town centre and visit the many museums. The Holtermann Museum in Mayne Street is strongly recommended and a world class exhibition. Mudgee and Gulgong offer a myriad of accommodation both in hotels, motels, and Bed & Breakfasts. Contact the Mudgee Visors Information Centre. Loop Rides From Mudgee Numerous cyclists have asked for Loop Rides - 1. Mudgee to Gulgong and return: Take the main CwC ride to Gulgong via Wilbetree Road, Canadian Lead and Mayne St. into Gulgong. The simplest route to return is Henry Lawson Drive all the way. However note this is a sealed road and while often quiet, traffic can be fast. Take care. Cycle down Mayne Street - traveling east, and this becomes Henry Lawson Drive.
