Location

Victoria’s desalination plant is located just outside the town of Wonthaggi, having Bass Coast as its main location. Three other locations were also listed: Surf Coast, Port Phillip Bay and Western Port. It is being constructed in Wonthaggi because the area is ready to access high water quality activity from ocean waters and seawater. This supplies rapid dispersal that concentrates suitable links into Melbourne’s existing water supply.
