Recycled water filling stations

We operate several recycled water filling stations. All filling stations are accessed through an automated system which requires an access device from us.

Our filling stations are fitted with a 63-millimetre (2.5 inches) male cam lock fitting. You will need your own 63-millimetre female fitting.

Only approved customers can access our recycled water filling stations. For information on how to apply to become a recycled water carrier, visit Recycled water carrier connections

Our recycled water filling stations provide different classes of water which will determine their approved uses. Each class has a different quality, as the treatment capabilities of our sewage treatment plants vary. There are restrictions placed on each class and how it can be used. Approved uses must be in line with the Queensland guidelines for low-exposure recycled water schemes

Class A approved uses: dust suppression, irrigation, construction work and road work
Class C approved uses: irrigation, construction work and road work

Recent changes to the QLD Health Guidelines have changed approved uses for recycled water carriers. Recycled water used for dust suppression must now be obtained from our Merrimac or Pimpama Recycled Water Filling Stations.
