Water & Wastewater Networks
Deliver treated water to every customer at adequate pressure and collect wastewater and stormwater back to the works, by operating pumps, storage, valves, pressure zones and sewers, finding and reducing the water lost on the way, and responding to bursts, blockages and spills. Treating the water and repairing the assets sit elsewhere.
- Water Network Operations
- Water Distribution & Collection
- Sewerage & Water Supply Networks

- BC-1600.10Water Distribution OperationsKeep treated water flowing to every customer at the right pressure by running pumps, storage, valves and pressure zones, responding to bursts, and keeping valves, hydrants and service lines fit for use.
- BC-1600.20Leakage & Water LossMeasure the water lost between the works and the customer, find the leaks and the metering and theft behind it, and target the reductions that pay back.
- BC-1600.30Wastewater Collection NetworkCarry sewage and stormwater from customers to treatment works through sewers and pumping stations without blockages, flooding or spills, and record every overflow that happens.
