Bringing recycled water to Bayside, Kingston, Greater Dandenong and Monash Local Government Areas for use in nurseries and the irrigation of public open spaces and golf courses.
We're currently planning the Dingley Recycled Water Scheme, which will deliver recycled water to around 40 sites in the Bayside, Kingston, Greater Dandenong and Monash Local Government Areas. Supplying local parks, world-class golf courses, sporting ovals, laundromats, market gardens and nurseries, the scheme will help preserve drinking water supply, regardless of changing climate conditions.
The Victorian Government announced part funding for the scheme as part of the delivery of the Central and Gippsland Regional Sustainable Water strategy, which aims to improve water security, liveability and waterway health for the next 40 years.
The project will cost approximately $72 million of which the Victorian Government has committed $24 million. The rest will be funded by South East Water and customers of the scheme.

Supplying recycled water to local parks, world-class golf courses, sporting ovals, laundromats, market gardens and nurseries, the scheme will help preserve our drinking water supply, and help our communities become more resilient to climate change.
Investigative works will include:
- Service proving to identify and locate all underground services that may interact with the pipeline alignment
- Engineering feature survey
- Geotechnical and contamination investigations
- Ecology surveys and environmental site mapping
These works will ensure the transfer main design is optimised to best suit the needs and requirements of the end users.
Abergeldie, BMD and KBR (ABK) will complete these works on behalf of South East Water.
We send digital communications to customers with a mobile number or email address registered to their mySouthEastWater account prior to works commencing. To register or check if your details are up to date visit my.southeastwater.com.au.
We then put a letter in your letter box before we commence works. If the works are deferred, we will send you another notification of the new proposed start date. Project signage will be installed at the work area prior to commencing the works.
We will also keep information on this webpage updated throughout the project.
No, we don't plan to impct driveway access. If for any reason during construction we need to block your driveway access, we will notify you in person and where possible, provide at least 24 hours' notice so that alternative parking arrangements can be made.
To safely undertake these works, traffic and pedestrian conditions may change so please take care when travelling around the construction sites.
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.
When we’ve finished the job, we’ll leave things how we found them and return any areas we’ve impacted as close as possible to their original condition.
Only high usage customers who have agreed to connect to the scheme will need to pay. Discussions with scheme customers on pricing will take place prior to connection.
