Development assessment for water-related operational works

Queensland's Planning Act 2016 sets out how development proposals are made and assessed. The table below shows the assessment categories and their requirements for water-related operational works.

Determining the assessment category

To determine which assessment category applies to your work, you should check:

• the Water Regulation 2016
• your catchment's water plan and any applicable moratorium notices.

If you need help to determine the assessment category for your water-related operational works, contact your local business centre of the Department of Regional Development, Manufacturing and Water.
