TasWater has begun an extensive state-wide project that will clean, inspect and then, if required, reline sections of the states vast sewer system.
Under the Tamar Estuary River Health Action Plan (TERHAP or the Plan), which is an initiative of the Tamar Estuary Management Taskforce (TEMT) and the Launceston City Deal, we’re improving our sewer infrastructure networks to improve the health of kanamaluka/Tamar Estuary.

Our District Metered Area (DMA) Project is a Statewide program that aims to get a better understanding of water loss within our district network system. To understand where water loss is high, it is necessary to install flow meters.

The Ulverstone Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) is servicing the catchments of Ulverstone, Gawler, West Ulverstone and Penguin. It treats approximately 70% of the state-wide sewage flows.
As part of TasWaters promise to the Tasmanian community to manage your sewage in an environmentally responsible way, 6 Sewer Pump Stations (SPS) in Cygnet will undergo some upgrades. This project will improve safety conditions for employees, reduce overflow and sewage spills.
TasWater is increasing its emergency storage capacity at several sewage pump station (SPS), and some new sewage mains within the Sorell council municipality.
TasWater has committed to achieving Health Based Targets (HBTs) on all drinking water systems across Tasmania. This project covers eight treatment plants that require UV disinfection upgrades, to reduce water quality risk and achieve HBT’s.
