It's your water future
Seqwater is planning now for South East Queenland's future water supply.
We need to understand what our communities think so the plan meets expectations and delivers water for life.
Community feedback informed the revised South East Queensland Water Security Program published in March 2017.
- What will our water needs be in the future?
- What do you value about water?
- Which water options do you prefer?
What do you value?
Seqwater wants to understand the views and values of the community so that our future plans meet community expectations.
There are four different factors taken into consideration when assessing water options. But should equal consideration be given to each? Or are some factors more important?
This is what you have told us so far.
Economic - costs, income, value, jobs, urban and rural industries and regional growth
People and place - where and how we live (including the look and feel of our places), our mobility, health and well being, access to recreation space and enjoyment of daily living
Environment - the natural eco-system (land, air, water, plants, trees and wildlife)
Resilience - having the capability, innovation and technologies to maintain quality water and supply (even in times of drought and flood)
What do you think?

Community forum report - water options
-
No single water supply option can meet our region’s long-term water security needs.
As a community, we need to consider our demand for water, the water supply options available to us and the way we operate the SEQ Water Grid. We asked the community what they thought at a series of Water for life community forums.
