Government Sewerage Policy - Points (DPLH-063)
Published by Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage
Description
The Government Sewerage Policy (2019) sets the State Government’s position on how sewerage services are to be provided in Western Australia through the planning and development of land. The policy guides future strategic planning, subdivision and development for the provision of sewage disposal in Western Australia. The policy promotes reticulated sewerage as the best disposal method for sewage. It requires all new subdivision and development to be connected to reticulated sewerage where available or considered necessary on health, environment or planning grounds. Where reticulated sewerage cannot be provided, the policy provides detailed site requirements for on-site sewage treatment and disposal.
