The Western Outer Ring Main (WORM) Project is a proposed gas transmission pipeline between Plumpton and Wollert in Victoria, to provide a high-pressure connection between the eastern and western sections of the Victorian Transmission System.
The WORM Project will help ensure that all Victorians can continue to benefit from a reliable gas transmission system that meets the needs of the community both now and into the future. The Project will achieve this by increasing the amount of natural gas that can be stored for times of peak demand, improving the efficiency of operation of the Victorian Transmission System.
The Victorian Minister for Planning has determined that an Environment Effects Statement (EES) is required to be prepared for the Project. The EES and pipeline licence application is available to read and download at www.apa.com.au/worm/ees.
The Minister for Planning’s assessment on the Project is expected in February 2022.
