Hanwood Stormwater Pump And Levee

Monday, 15 Apr 2024

The $1.5 million stormwater pump project is moving ahead in Hanwood, to improve the village's flood resilience. It will include a pump station and three pump units.
Council  received $1 million in funding from the Natural Disaster Resilience Program (2020/21) for the stormwater pump (Stage 1) located at Hanwood, while contributing $500,000, making a total project cost of $1.5 million. 
The Hanwood Stormwater Pump (Stage 1) project includes a pumping station at Mallee Street side with associated pipe networks and the installation of a 1,500mm diameter pipe at around 3.5m depth under Kidman Way to convey water from the village to the pump. 
The project is also implementing a pumping station with three pump units, holding a discharging capacity of around 1,000L/s and a diesel pumping option to manage any electrical blackout or power failures.
