It comes after Bathurst Regional Council on Wednesday night selected Hynash Constructions to carry out the construction, awarding the company the $20 million tender.
The project is being supported by the NSW Government, which has provided $20 million in funding to boost water security in the Bathurst region.
Mayor Robert Taylor said water security is a top priority for council and he was pleased to be able to announce the next step in delivering the important project.
"In the latest drought, we were close to running out of water. This will give us a third of our water supply per annum and it's a major, major project," he said.
He was also pleased that council, which had received tenders from multiple companies, selected a Bathurst company to construct the stormwater harvesting infrastructure.
