| * Carlingford Park Wetlands (also know as Gillwell Park) was designed in 2008 and constructed in 2009.
| |
| * The wetlands include:
| |
| ** two Gross Pollutant Traps (GPTs) on the east and the west of the park.
| |
| ** The East GPT is connected to 11 Ha of urban catchment with an annual runoff volume of 52 ML
| |
| ** The West GPT is connected to 9.2 Ha of urban catchment with an annual runoff volume of 43 ML
| |
| * Each GPT feeds into sedimentation ponds and then into a 2000 m2 circular raingarden.
| |
| * In higher rainfall events stormwater overtops the raingarden and cascades into the lake.
| |
| The output of the raingarden and lake is to a Melbourne Water stormwater pipe that travels south.
