9 Anaerobic digesters at project treatment facilities to replace lagoons
(1A) At least one anaerobic digester must be installed at each project treatment facility as part of a wastewater project to replace all deep open anaerobic lagoons at the project treatment facility.
Note: If a deep open anaerobic lagoon is not being replaced, it is not part of the project and hence not considered to be part of the project treatment facility.
(1) A lagoon that is to be replaced as part of a project must, before 24 April 2014:
(a) have existed; and
(b) been treating:
(i) domestic or commercial wastewater; or
(ii) industrial wastewater.
(2) The lagoon must only treat either, or both, of the following:
(a) domestic or commercial wastewater;
(b) industrial wastewater.
