Updated waterways mapping (nested callout)
Updates to Queensland waterways mapping (version 3.1)
The following changes have been made to the 'Queensland waterways for waterway barrier works' mapping:
- reclassified the Condamine-Balonne, Moonie and Border rivers drainage basins from eastern to western drainage basins
- reduced the number of high order streams classified as purple waterways in all western Queensland drainage basins.
These changes will reduce accepted development requirements and the number of waterways that require development approvals in western Queensland regions.
Refer to the frequently asked questions to find out more about how the changes will apply to current and future developments.
