Emerald sewerage backlog program
As part of the Avonsleigh Sewerage Backlog Project some parts of Emerald will receive sewerage services. This project is currently in the early stages of detailed design and aims to provide reticulated sewerage services to parts of Avonsleigh and Emerald by July 2012. The proposed network for this area will be a combination of traditional gravity connections as well as pressure sewer connections.
