Overview

This report provides detailed information on our social and environmental performance in 2006/07.

We are responsible for managing Melbourne’s water resources in a way that ensures that future generations enjoy one of the best urban environments in the world.

To achieve this, we have set high standards and goals to reflect our approach to working with government, retail water businesses and the community to achieve results over and above regulatory requirements.

We also play a significant role as public health and environment managers in the way we manage Melbourne’s water supply, sewerage and drainage infrastructure and monitor the health of rivers and creeks.

We want the community and other stakeholders to gain a full understanding of our efforts to secure Melbourne’s water future, which is why we undertake open and transparent reporting, particularly in regard to our two major sewage treatment plants.

Melbourne Water’s Sustainability Report 2006/07 provides a summary of our social, financial and environment performance and this report can be accessed on the Melbourne Water website at melbournewater.com.au

The following data on how we met our environmental and social responsibilities is sourced from Melbourne Water‘s monitoring programs.
