TUESDAY: Coffs Harbour Manager Special Projects Glenn O’Grady will be presenting on the new Coffs Harbour Water Reclamation Plant. The project makes Coffs Harbour one of the first Australia councils to have trialled, evaluated and developed project alliances to meet legislative requirements and local needs. This presentation will outline how end user interactions are the catalyst for a truly successful project. Built through the Coffs Infrastructure Alliance, a partnership between the Coffs Harbour City Council and a joint venture between John Holland, Abigroup, GHD, Aquatec Maxcon, CNFA and Serck Controls, the plant is part of the council’s $A250 million Sewerage Strategy.

WEDNESDAY: The third keynote session will address the installation of the National Broadband Network and the opportunities available for contractors in this sector.
