WaterSecure is the Queensland Government authority responsible for the supply of desalinated water directly to the South East Queensland Water Grid and supply of purified recycled water to power stations, future industrial customers and, potentially, agriculture, as well as Wivenhoe Dam to supplement the region’s drinking water supplies if required.
 
WaterSecure is responsible for delivering the following two projects:

• Western Corridor Recycled Water Project that has the capacity to supply up to 232 megalitres of purified recycled water a day
• Gold Coast Desalination Project that will supply 133 megalitres of desalinated water a day.

The Interim Water Quality Report results show that the final quality of the purified recycled water conforms to the guideline levels prescribed by Queensland Health in the Public Health Regulation 2005.

Based on the testing results in the report, the commissioning of the Western Corridor Recycled Water Project is proceeding well, providing confidence it is capable of consistently producing purified recycled water that is safe to be used to supplement Wivenhoe Dam.
