The desalination will comprise of 29 buildings that would take up 38 hectares of the total 263 hectare on site. It will be set at minimal ground level which would enable it to be integrated into the landscape and reduce the amount of energy needed to lift seawater to the plant. The highest point of the main buildings is 20 meters above the sea level, but this will barely be visible from the surrounding areas. The remainder of the area will be seen as one of the largest single ecological restoration project in Victoria. It will restore and enhance the natural habitat, creating a new coastal park for the future generations to enjoy.
