Project Description
The Woolworths Moorebank Regional Distribution Centre (MoRDC) project includes the design and construction of a new 71,790m2 automated warehouse facility scheduled to open in 2024.
Due to the historical land use at Moorebank, trace per-and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination was present in the sub grade throughout the MoRDC Stage 2 Site. Stormwater run-off from rain events became contaminated with PFAS and required capture in various holding ponds to avoid contamination of the surrounding rivers/creeks.
To maintain holding capacity for future rain events, Richard Crookes Construction (RCC) engaged SciDev to design, construct and operate a water treatment plant (WTP) to treat and discharge the captured contaminated water to the environment.
