  • Paradise Dam Community Update May 2021 Sunwater Understands the Bundaberg Community’S Concern About Water Security for the Region
    Paradise Dam Community Update May 2021 Sunwater understands the Bundaberg community’s concern about water security for the region. Safety is the key driver for the work we are doing at Paradise Dam. Dam failure risk reduced In March, we confirmed that with the completion of work on the dam spillway, the risk of dam failure has been reduced to a 1 in 5000-year event. The dam failure risk before the start of the Essential Works was equivalent to a 1 in 200-year event, which is similar to what the community experienced in 2013. With the risk of a dam failure reduced, Sunwater has now amended the Paradise Dam Emergency Action Plan (EAP) evacuation triggers in consultation with the Bundaberg and North Burnett local disaster management groups. Read more in the Essential Works Risk Reduction Fact Sheet and the recently updated Paradise Dam Emergency Response Overview. Planning for the next phase of work A range of activities including Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) shear strength testing, post- tensioned anchor trials, geotechnical investigations and complex hydrology studies together with the future water demand study will inform an assessment of the long-term options for Paradise Dam. A number of primary spillway heights are being considered to meet dam safety and water security objectives, and alternative supply options will also be examined. Decommissioning the dam is not on the table. An options report and recommendation will be provided to the Queensland Government, which is expected to make a decision about the long-term future of Paradise Dam by the end of 2021.

  • Sunwater Dams Sunwater Makes a Significant Contribution to the Rural, Industrial, Energy, Mining and Urban Development of Queensland by Providing Water Solutions
    SunWater Dams SunWater makes a significant contribution to the rural, industrial, energy, mining and urban development of Queensland by providing water solutions. Over the past 80 years, SunWater has designed and managed the construction of 30 of Queensland’s dams, 82 weirs and barrages, 39 reservoirs and balancing storages and rural and bulk water infrastructure systems. Currently, SunWater owns and manages 19 dams in Queensland and each dam has been strategically built in existing river, stream or creek locations to serve the needs of the region. A dam is a critical component of a water supply scheme which can be made up of weirs and barrages, pumping stations, pipelines and channels, and drains. The overall scheme is designed to supply water for various purposes including town water supply, irrigation, electricity production, industrial i.e. power stations, mines, stock and groundwater supply. Water Supply Scheme Pipeline Industrial & Mining Dam Drain Pumping Station Channel Legend Balancing Storage SunWater Infrastructure Purpose of Water Supply Weir Irrigation Town Barrage Water Supply Dam Types The type of dam is defined by how the dam wall was constructed. Depending on the surrounding environment, SunWater dams can be described as one or more Scheme of the following: Pipeline Cania Dam Boondooma Dam Wuruma Dam Paradise Dam Julius Dam EMBANKMENT CONCRETE FACED MASS CONCRETE ROLLER COMPACTED MULTIPLE ARCH Industrial & Mining ROCKFILL GRAVITY CONCRETE GRAVITY CONCRETE Constructed as an Constructed as an BUTTRESS embankment of well Constructed using a Constructed in horizontal embankment of compacted Constructed as concrete compacted clay (earthfill) some large volume of layers of dryer than normal free-draining granular earth horizontal arches supported with rock on the faces (rockfill).
