It was the first contact filtration plant in Australia to use large Effective Size media, following original pilot plant work by the Hunter Water Corporation. Nowadays, a deeper bed would be used with media of this Effective Size, but the plant is nevertheless a forerunner of many plants in Australia which use a contact filtration or direct filtration process with Deep Bed Coarse Dual Media filtration technology.

It is also the first plant to use C & S Filter Coal, and the excellent results obtained with this media over eight years of continuous operation confirms the durability and stability of C & S Filter Coal, and also its ability to produce a filtered water of the highest quality.
