Information session for a proposed local Wet Waste Drying Facility at Hyland Highway Landfill near Loy Yang on 19 April 2023
On 19 April, join the info session on a local Wet Waste Drying Facility at Hyland Highway Landfill to reduce operational costs of drainage waste disposal in Latrobe City.
Latrobe City Council is encouraging community members to attend an information session for a proposed local Wet Waste Drying Facility this April. The proposed location of the facility is at Hyland Highway Landfill. The facility would streamline drainage waste from Latrobe City's network of stormwater drainage pits, pipelines and gross pollutant traps to minimise operational costs associated with typical disposal.

"The proposed Wet Waste Drying Facility is a potential way for council to better handle drainage waste in a more cost-effective manner. We hope to see community members come along and ask staff and the environmental consultant any burning questions they may have to get a better understanding of the facility," said the Mayor.
