1 Description of Riverina Water County Council’s Operations

1.1 Wagga Wagga City Water is sourced in Wagga Wagga from:

A) Murrumbidgee River intake at 91 Hammond Avenue

B) East Wagga Wagga borefield (Kooringal Road)

C) West Wagga Wagga borefield (McNickle Road to Moorong Street)

D) North Wagga Wagga borefield (East Street)

Raw water is treated at 4 principle water treatment plants located at the Hammond Avenue Waterworks and Aeration plants, and West & North Wagga Wagga treatment plants.

Pumping Stations at eight Wagga Wagga locations together with a network of rising mains transfer the water to eighteen reservoirs, on three different levels, to provide storage and pressure needed for the different elevations within Wagga Wagga as well as the surrounding area outside Wagga Wagga including Ladysmith, Brucedale and The Gap rural areas, and the township of Currawarna..

Reticulation water mains extend to cover the entire urban area providing water for industry, residential, commercial, recreation and emergency fire fighting needs.

1.2 Township & Rural Water from the Wagga Wagga sources, is also pumped into Willans Hill rural reservoir (to be relocated to Dunns Road in 2018/19) and gravitates down the southern trunk main that extends to Walla Walla. The southern trunk main supplies townships including San Isadore, Kapooka, Uranquinty, The Rock, Mangoplah, Yerong Creek, Henty, Morven, Pleasant Hills and Walla Walla. A supplementary bore supply and treatment plant north of Walla Walla is used in the summer months. Note: The township of Culcairn is supplied with water by Greater Hume Shire Council.

The western trunk main extends from Bulgary to Oaklands and is sourced water from Bulgary borefield 30 km west of Wagga Wagga. The western trunk main supplies townships including Lockhart, Boree Creek, Urana & Oaklands. The Western trunk main is also supplemented in the summer months by surface water from Colombo Creek to Urana Filtration Plant via a raw water pipeline.

There are a number of smaller independent water treatment plants and supply systems that serve various townships throughout Riverina Water’s area of supply. These include: Morundah, Walbundrie-Rand, Woomargama, Holbrook, Humula, Tarcutta, Oura and Collingullie. Note: Holbrook is supplied by Ralvona borefield and is operated independently to the southern trunk main.

Groundwater is sourced and chlorinated for other villages with systems operating at Collingullie, Oura, Woomargama, and Humula.

A small quantity of water is purchased from Goldenfields Water County Council, to supply customers near to their trunk main between Gumly Gumly and Junee.

The following figure illustrates Riverina Water’s area of supply:
