Planning guidelines for water supply and sewerage
These guidelines were the first major revision of Queensland State Government Planning Guidelines on urban water supply and sewerage for over 10 years when introduced in 2005.
They replaced the previous Guidelines for Planning and Design of Sewerage Schemes (Water Resources, 1991/92) and Guidelines for Planning and Design of Urban a Water Supply Schemes (Water Resources, 1989).
They have been provided in sections to enable faster download, and as a complete PDF to make printing easier.
