Technical Regulation

Metering Code

Section 72 of the Water Supply and Sewerage Services Act 2000 and clause 9.1(e) of Power and Water's water supply services licence requires that Power and Water, as licensee, must develop and publish a code setting out the arrangements and conditions for installing, testing, verifying and replacing meters owned by Power and Water, and that this code must be submitted to the Commission for consideration and approval.

In July 2006, Power and Water sought the Commission's approval for some revisions to the approved Code. The Commission approved the revised Code as the proposed changes submitted by Power and Water do not alter the Code substantially enough to be considered inconsistent with the objects of the Act.

Trade Waste Code

Section 83(4) of the Water Supply and Sewerage Services Act 2000 requires that Power and Water, as licensee, must publish a code setting out the conditions on which Power and Water will approve trade waste being discharged into Power and Water’s sewerage services infrastructure, and that this code must be submitted to the Commission for consideration and approval.

The Code has been developed by Power and Water in conjunction with industry participants.
