Water Treatment and Disposal Diversification for Harvey Water

7/16/2020

 
Picture
​Harvey Water is proposing to build a pipeline from Kemerton Strategic Industrial Area to the coast to carry brine to ocean disposed under strictly monitored and regulated conditions.
 
Brine is concentrated salt and minerals produced during the reverse osmosis treatment of water.
The brine pipeline represents another significant diversification project for Harvey Water and complements the water treatment plant we are contracted to supply to Albemarle in early 2021.
 The brine pipeline would provide a Cooperative income stream that is not linked to the supply of water, and expands our capability across a broader range of water delivery and management services.
 
The pipeline will provide critical infrastructure to further enable the Kemerton Strategic Industrial Area. It also opens up a disposal option for brackish water desalination which may in the future aid agricultural production.
 
The 12 km brine pipeline would be made from 200mm diameter black polyethylene with a wall thickness of 15mm and buried 1 metre underground in road reserves, firebreaks, across cleared farmland and finally though the dune area to the coast. Pipe will be laid in the more sensitive areas (such as dunes, seabed, high water table areas and near habitat trees) via the Horizontal Direct Drilling (HDD) method to avoid ground surface disturbance.
 
Community consultation sessions, along with a wide range of studies including Aboriginal heritage, habitat, flora, fauna, endangered species, marine and seabed studies will support our proposal to the WA Environmental Protection Agency.
