Victorian Water Corporations

Their responsibilities include:

• the supply of drinking and recycled water, and the removal and treatment of sewage and trade waste – known as ‘urban’ water services
• water delivery for irrigation, domestic and stock purposes, drainage and salinity mitigation – known as ‘rural’ water services.

Some water corporations also provide water for environmental purposes, manage bulk water storages and designated recreational areas, and help the Minister for Water operate the Victorian Water Register.

Water corporations operate and maintain infrastructure that enables them to perform their responsibilities, including treatment plants, pumping stations, pipes, channels, reservoirs, dams, gates and meters. Find out more below.
