Waverley Council - Waverley Park recycled water system
The Waverley Park Water Recycling system harvests groundwater seepage which is captured and filtered to supply water for irrigation at Waverley Oval sports fields and ornamental gardens, as well as flushing toilets at Council’s Margaret Whitlam Centre.

Beyond significant water savings of approximately 7 ML of drinking water and $15,000 each year, the project improves local water quality by reducing stormwater run-off and improves resilience to drought.
