During his time at ACTEW, Sullivan led major water projects, including the Cotter Dam expansion project, with the aim to "drought-proof" Canberra.[11] Sullivan announced his retirement from the ACTEW Corporation in February 2014,[11][12] collecting a $690,000 termination payment on his departure.[13]
