Tenders accepted for fluoridation plant

Fluoridation of the region’s water supply is one step closer as Port Macquarie-Hastings Council last week accepted a tender for the construction of the Rosewood Road Fluoridation Plant.
The contract for the construction (civil/buildings works) of the $1.3 million plant at Wauchope will be awarded to local company Garry Bannister Constructions Pty Ltd.
Director of Infrastructure, Jeffery Sharp said, “Council will construct the Rosewood Road Fluoridation Plant following a direction by the NSW Department of Health to fluoridate the region’s reticulated water supply.
“Tenders were called for two separate contracts - civil/building works and fluoridation switch gear and control gear assembly in December. Installation of the process equipment and commissioning of the plant will be undertaken by the council on completion of these two contracts.
“The council will receive $1.77 million in funding from the Department of Health for the construction of the fluoridation facility.
“To ensure the standard of the facility is in line with similar council facilities in terms of operational health and safety and plant operation maintenance and reliability, the council has previously approved additional funding for duty/stand-by dosing pump arrangements and additional site and laboratory facilities,” Mr Sharp said.
