    ENRC Inquiry into Flood Mitigation Infrastructure Submission by Melbourne Water 5 August 2011 Who is Melbourne Water? Melbourne Water is a statutory corporation, fully owned by the Victorian Government. Melbourne Water is a water resource manager with three main areas of responsibility: 1. Provision of wholesale water and recycled water services to retail water businesses 2. Provision of wholesale sewerage services to retail water businesses 3. Provision of waterways and drainage services in the Port Phillip and Westernport region, which includes the greater Melbourne community. Melbourne Water’s waterways and drainage responsibilities include providing river health, water quality, floodplain and regional drainage services across the region as outlined in the Water Act 1989 and our Statement of Obligations. The Water Act 1989, in particular Part 6 Division 2, and Part 10, Divisions 1, 2, 3 and 4 gives Melbourne Water the authority to manage waterways, regional drainage and floodplain management services. Melbourne Water also has specific delegated Ministerial functions under the Water Act, including diversions management (the licensing of water extractions) and licensing of works by others on waterways. In other regions, the responsibility for the provision of waterways and drainage services (river health and floodplain management) rests with the relevant Catchment Management Authority. Within the Port Phillip and Westernport region however, the Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority does not have responsibility for the management of waterways and regional drainage and river health. Melbourne Water’s Area of Responsibility and assets Our area of responsibility covers the 12,800 square kilometre Port Phillip and Westernport region which includes the river basins of Werribee, Maribyrnong, Yarra and Bunyip with a significant portion of the catchment highly urbanised.
