Our pesticide use

How we use pesticides safely and responsibly around electricity network assets, and how we keep the community informed through our Pesticide Use Notification Plan.

Our Pesticide Use Notification Plan informs the community about the use of pesticides in public places around our electricity network assets. The plan aims to ensure that pesticides are used in a safe and responsible way that minimises harm to the community and the environment. The plan covers public areas throughout our network in Sydney, the Central Coast and the Hunter Valley.

You can download a copy of the Pesticide Use Notification Plan or collect a printed copy from these Ausgrid offices:

  • 24-28 Campbell Street, Sydney
  • 145 Newcastle Road, Wallsend
