The Prospect Water Filtration Plant will be one of the largest water treatment plants in the world, with an initial capacity of 780 mgd (3,000 ML/d) and a potential future capacity of 1,090 mgd (4,200 ML/d). It has been developed under a build-own-operate (BOO) contract between Australian Water Services (the private operator) and the Sydney Water Corporation (the public authority). This project showcases the advantages of BOO contractual arrangements. The article describes the implementation of the project through competitive bidding, elaborates on the partnership approach, and outlines the main features of the contractual arrangement. Perspectives of both the public authority and the private operator are presented. Includes table, figures.
