Parramatta. Program for business sustainability

A partnership between Parramatta and Auburn councils is developing an innovative program for business sustainability in the Silverwater and Camellia industrial areas. Funded through a NSW Environmental Trust grant, the Duck River Catchment Sustainable Business Program will facilitate practical solutions for businesses to implement environmentally sustainable business practices. “The Camellia and Silverwater industrial precincts provide significant and valuable resources to the NSW economy and society, however valuable changes can be made to significantly reduce the production of waste, water use, increase recycling and prevent the pollution of Duck River,” said Amanda Carroll, environmental planner, with Auburn Council.
