WaterNSW secures $242m for design and construction of dam
WaterNSW has been advised by Ashurst on the redesign and construction of the Dungowan Dam.
Naomi Neilson
Firm: Ashurst (WaterNSW)
Value: $242 million.
Area: Construction and infrastructure.
Key players: The team was led by partner Gareth Sage, who was assisted by counsel Ben Kipic, senior associate Charlotte Britton and lawyers Marya Atmeh and Lachlan Mack.
Deal significance: The current Dungowan Dam has a capacity of 6.3 gigalitres and the project potentially involves the replacement of the current dam with a larger dam, increasing that capacity to 22 gigalitres. The pipeline will assist in securing the long-term water supply for Tamworth.
Mr Sage commented: “We are delighted to have acted for WaterNSW on the Dungowan pipeline project, a significant investment infrastructure that will safeguard water security for Tamworth and neighbouring regional and rural areas.”
