Blind Bight Water Recycling Plant Upgrade
Works in your area starting July 2025
You might not notice a lot of the work we do because most of it is beneath your feet. Every day, we’re maintaining and upgrading the pipes and pumps that keep water and wastewater flowing.
South East Water manages 8 Recycled Water Plants across its service region. We’ll be undertaking some works to upgrade the Blind Bight Recycled Water Plant you might see us or our industry partner ABK (Abergeldie, BMD, KBR) around.
Here's what to expect while we get the job done.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our infrastructure program involves replacing, maintaining and upgrading the existing water and sewerage infrastructure above and below the ground, so you can always rely on us when you need a drink, a bath, to wash the clothes or dishes and every time you flush or send water down the drain.
ABK will undertake these works on behalf of South East Water.
No. If you experience any disruption to your water or sewerage services please call our 24/7 Faults and Emergencies team on 13 28 12.
Construction hours will be Monday to Friday between 7am and 6pm. On the odd occasion, we might need to work at other times for safety, technical or permit reasons.
Construction will start in July 2025 and take approximately 7 months to complete.
There’ll be periods of noise when heavy machinery is being used and a possibility for increased dust as we move machinery in and out of the water recycling plant. The project team will carry out regular site inspections during high volumes of work to monitor for the safety and comfort of local residents and the community.
There is no cost to the property owner for these works.
When we’ve finished the job, we’ll leave things how we found them and make sure we return any areas we’ve impacted as close as possible to their original condition.
