As reported in eflash #293, the Department of Health is in the process of developing materials to support recycled water service providers and their customers, now that “low exposure” recycled water management effectively defaults to the Public Health Act (since significant regulatory changes in June 2014).

qldwater and members have assisted to date in the development of a draft user agreement.  DOH has also commenced drafting a brief guideline document, with a series of fact sheets based on each of the most common recycled water uses planned as well.

It is expected that the publications will be available for broader review in the first half of 2017, and DOH has made every effort to ensure that the materials are useful and practical to both providers and customers.
