  • 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).
