This article provides a comprehensive discussion of public water supplies of Queensland, Australia. It begins by classifying Queensland's sources of water supplies into six categories, followed by a discussion of the number of supply systems, population served, and per capita consumption. Treatment practices are discussed, along with treatment plant design, filter backwashing methods, and disinfection.
