Desalination plant gets go ahead

Construction of Sydney's desalination plant will begin within a fortnight after the NSW government officially signed the contract.

Leighton Holdings and its joint venture partner, water services company Veolia Water, were awarded the $1.76 billion contract to design, build, operate and maintain the plant at Kurnell in Sydney's south for 20 years.
