Southern Wastewater Consulting – wastewater reports in the Shoalhaven 

Southern Wastewater Consulting provides clear, accurate wastewater reports in the Shoalhaven to support development approvals and system upgrades. We specialise in on-site sewage management system (OSSM) reports that meet Shoalhaven City Council requirements for new homes, secondary dwellings, subdivisions, and commercial projects.

Our small, agile team and specialised focus allow us to deliver premium quality work and Council compliance quickly while keeping our costs lean.

 

If your property in the Shoalhaven is not connected to sewer, a wastewater management plan is required as part of the development process. Our reports set out how wastewater can be safely treated and disposed on your site sustainably.

We prepare wastewater assessments in the Shoalhaven for:

  • New dwellings and granny flats in unsewered areas.

  • Upgrading, replacing, or relocating existing systems.

  • Subdivisions or boundary adjustments.

  • Commercial sites such as schools, restaurants, wineries, or tourism developments.​​

Each report includes:

  • Site and soil evaluation.

  • System design tailored to your property.

  • A scaled site plan showing disposal areas and buffers.

  • Recommendations for wastewater systems such as septic tanks, AWTS, greywater systems, composting toilets, or absorption beds.

We also provide wastewater testing and effluent sampling in the Shoalhaven. Testing measures system performance against key indicators including nitrogen, phosphorus, E. coli, and BOD, with results explained in plain language for homeowners, developers, and councils.

With over 15 years’ experience in wastewater consulting, soil assessment, geology and compliance, our focus is on producing reports that are practical, technically accurate, and ready for Council submission.

Our three step method

  1. Email Info: Start the process by emailing info@southernwastewater.com.au or calling 0435 575 403. A site plan or early layout can help, but it’s not essential. We’ll let you know exactly what we need so everything stays straightforward.

  2. After Quote: Once the quote is accepted, we’ll visit your property to assess the site and soil, then send you a preliminary plan for wastewater disposal for consultation.

  3. Final Report: Once you've endorsed it, we’ll prepare the final report in 10-15 working days. You’ll need to provide your local Council with your wastewater report.
