Data Right - Smart Water Meter Installations

Queensland irrigators reminded to lodge meter readings Annual water meter readings are due for Queensland irrigators, with DLGWV urging users to lodge the readings online.

📅 One month until annual non-urban water meter readings are due!

Did you know there are over 6000 non-urban water meters across the state?

Queensland is a big place and we rely on you to provide accurate and timely meter readings.

Why? Providing an accurate reading helps us distribute water fairly to those who need it and determine what water may be available for future use and economic growth. Thanks in advance for doing the right thing!
