Seqwater operates on the principle that our website dam levels relate only to the water available for drinking purposes. Therefore, once the levels reach 100% that is effectively the limit to drinking water availability. It does not take into account flood water storage.
Seqwater is South East Queensland’s bulk water supply provider.
We deliver innovative and efficient management of catchments, water storages, and treatment services to ensure the quantity and quality of the region’s water supplies.
We’re striving to apply specialist know-how and technologies to improve the productive sustainability of the ecosystems, storages and water supply infrastructure within our catchments.
Water for Life is our promise to the community to deliver secure and reliable water sources both now and into the future.
Seqwater merging with LinkWater and SEQ Water Grid Manager
On 1 January 2013, Seqwater is merging with LinkWater and the SEQ Water Grid Manager to form a single bulk water supply authority responsible for ensuring a safe, secure and reliable water supply for South East Queensland, as well as managing catchment health and providing recreational facilities to the community.
From 1 January, if you visit www.seqwater.com.au you will be taken to a new website, however there will be links to ensure you can still access all vital information on the current Seqwater website.
Flood discharges from North Pine, Somerset, Wivenhoe and Leslie Harrison dams are controlled by gates. Flood discharges from all other dams are not controlled.
