  • Overview March 19 Ewen Maddock Dam Is One of Several Dams in South East Queensland Scheduled to Be Upgraded As Part of Our O
    Overview March 19 Ewen Maddock Dam is one of several dams in South East Queensland scheduled to be upgraded as part of our ongoing Dam Improvement Program. The upgrade work is set to begin from July 2019 and will include strengthening the existing embankment and raising the dam wall to increase its floodwater capacity. Work is expected to take up to 18 months, subject to weather conditions and other unexpected delays. About the Dam Ewen Maddock Dam is part of the SEQ Water Grid – a connected network of dams, treatment plants, reservoirs and pipelines supplying drinking water to the region. The dam was constructed across Addlington Creek, a tributary of the Mooloolah River. Construction of the dam was completed in 1976 and the full supply level (FSL) was raised in 1982. Following the independent dam safety review in 2010, a number of improvements were identified at Ewen Maddock Dam and approved for delivery in two stages. In 2012, the stage one upgrade of the dam involved the installation of pressure relief wells into the foundation materials, and construction of a sand filter buttress and overlying weighting berm made of clay along the downstream embankment toe. In 2016, Seqwater engaged an engineering consultant to develop the second stage of the upgrade design. More than twenty-one options were identified during this process. About the Dam Safety Upgrade On 1 February 2019, the Minister for Natural Resources, Mines and Energy, Dr Anthony Lynham, announced the project will begin in 2019. The media release can be read here. http://statements.qld.gov.au/Statement/2019/2/1/20m-upgrade-work- for-ewen-maddock-dam The 2019 - 2020 stage two upgrade option will: • add sand filters to the existing earthfill embankment • raise the embankment height with a parapet wall, to increase flood capacity • strengthen the concrete spillway • raise the training walls of the spillway • install emergency outlets in the spillway to enable reservoir drawdown in the case of a dam safety incident.

Seqwater’s detailed responses to each item would be appreciated by COB 19 October 2012, please. Happy to discuss at any time noting the proposed due date of COB 19 October 2012 From: Colin Nicolson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, 19 October 2012 1:10 PM To: Angus MacDonald Cc: George Passmore; Damian Scholz Subject: FW: Information Request 12 October 2012 Hello Angus Here are our responses to the above information request. QCA Question 1 - Cedar Pocket Stakeholders (Issues Arising (IA) Cedar Pocket 2012) submitted that more details were required regarding Seqwater’s proposed renewals expenditure [outlined in the NSP] on “electricity supply assets” in 2025-26 at $30,000. Please provide more details regarding this proposed expenditure. Seqwater Response to Item 1 The Assets in question are a property pole, meter box (excluding the meters), cabling and a distribution board. The renewal is scheduled based on the Seqwater “standard asset life” of 20 years for this type of equipment. It was installed in 2005 and will be 20 years old when the work is scheduled. The cost estimate is drawn from the estimated replacement costs as set out in Section 5.2.2 and Section 9 of the Irrigation Infrastructure Renewal Projections - 2013/14 to 2046/47 Report on Methodology. The renewal timing, will be reviewed on an ongoing basis so that it is only delivered when condition warrants. The scope and cost estimate will be reviewed prior to commencement of work to ensure the delivery is efficient.

  • Purified Recycled Water in the Lockyer Valley
    Fact Sheet December 2012 Purified Recycled Water in the Lockyer Valley The water supply security of South East Queensland (SEQ) has recently been increased by the construction of the Western Corridor Recycled Water Scheme. The infrastructure of advanced wastewater treatment plants provides purified recycled water (PRW) to the SEQ Water Grid for indirect potable reuse of effluent from urban areas. With a maximum combined production capacity of 232 million litres of PRW a day, it is the third largest recycled water scheme in the world and the largest in the southern hemisphere. This additional water supply is critical during drought conditions but is underused in wet periods. The provision of recycled water in an environmentally Background sound and socially-equitable manner requires measured The Urban Water Security Research Alliance (the Alliance) understanding of the potential impacts on the region’s worked closely with the Queensland Water Commission, soils, groundwater system, environment (such as salinity the former Queensland Department of Environment and issues) and the economy. Therefore, a holistic framework Resource Management, WaterSecure (now Seqwater) and was required to inform an integrated water management the SEQ Water Grid Manager, as well as irrigators and the plan involving the use of PRW.
