Abstract
Over the next 20 years, Sydney's population is expected to increase by about one million, with most of this growth proposed to be within the already environmentally stressed Hawkesbury-Nepean River catchment. The Water Board is providing infrastructure to the future urban development using a combination of conventional and innovative structural and non-structural solutions within an integrated river basin planning approach. The package of total water resource management initiatives that form the servicing strategy for the first major urban release area is outlined. It is demonstrated that the use of appropriate technologies can be effectively combined with resource management techniques to mitigate the potentially adverse environmental impacts of urban growth.
