The SEQ Water Grid Manager, a former statutory authority of the Government of Queensland, was in operation between 2008 and 2012. During this period, the agency was responsible for managing the strategic operation of the SEQ Water Grid, including issues such as water security and water quality for the region.
Activities and functions
[edit]The agency was created in the 2006 water grid plan.[1]
Whilst in operation, the SEQ Water Grid Manager purchased the services to store, treat, produce and transport bulk water from Seqwater and LinkWater to sell to SEQ Water Grid customers - council-owned, businesses and power stations.
To manage the operations of the SEQ Water Grid and maintain water security, it made daily decisions about water demand; and based on those projections supplies treated water to the SEQ Water Grid to meet the needs of communities and businesses. The SEQ Water Grid Manager was also responsible for ensuring safe, secure and efficient water is delivered to SEQ Water Grid customers; managing the SEQ Water Grid's debt profile; implementing a whole-of-Grid risk management framework; and implementing whole-of-Grid improvement projects.
Seqwater assumed the function of the SEQ Water Grid Manager on 1 January 2013.[2]

On 29 November 2012, the South East Queensland Water (Restructuring) and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2012 was passed in the Queensland Parliament to provide for the merger of the SEQ bulk water businesses – SEQ Water Grid Manager, LinkWater and Seqwater – into a new bulk water supply authority.
