Our Customer Service Centre is temporarily located at Speers Point Library, opposite Council's Administration Building.
Food and garden waste collected in your green bin is processed into high-quality compost for use on parks, gardens and in agriculture. This waste is taken to the Lake Macquarie Organics Resource Recovery Facility (LMORRF), located next to our Awaba Waste Management Facility.
The LMORFF is open seven days a week for direct disposal of food and garden waste and is operated by Remondis.
A Biodiversity Offset Strategy was developed to comply with the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 approval of the Lake Macquarie Organics Processing Facility. Council manages the Awaba Biodiversity Conservation Area to compensate for the loss of Tetratheca juncea and Grevillea parviflora subsp. parviflora plants arising from the construction of the facility. The Biodiversity Offset Strategy has been approved and implemented, with the offset area protected by a restrictive covenant on the land title, and the land managed by Council in accordance with the Awaba Biodiversity Conservation Area Plan of Management 2015.
