SAFETY ALERT! Flooding
Gladstone Area Water Board supplies bulk water to customers in Central Queensland. Water is an integral part of our lives. The diagram below demonstrates the water supply chain for the Gladstone region.
The Queensland Competition Authority (QCA) monitors the prices we charge customers for water, and typically every five years the prices are reviewed by the QCA.
In December 2023, the Queensland Government issued a Directions and Referral Notice (Referral Notice) to the QCA initiating the next review process. In May 2024, the Queensland Treasurer issued an amending Referral Notice to the QCA, which amended the scope of the review.
GAWB tendered a submission to the QCA on 31 May 2024 which details GAWB’s proposed capital and operating expenditure, and indicative bulk water prices in accordance with the provisions of the amending Referral Notice.
On 12 December, the QCA released its Draft Report. The Draft Report provides the QCA’s interim findings. GAWB and stakeholders have until 17 February 2025 to provide a response to the QCA. In accordance with the amending Referral Notice, the QCA is to provide its Final Report to Government by 30 April 2025.
For more information about the process, please visit the QCA website.
The Gladstone Area Water Board proudly acknowledges the Bailai, Gooreng Gooreng, Gurang and Taribelang Bunda people as the Traditional Custodians of the Gladstone region. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and recognise the ongoing connection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to the land and water on which we rely.
