SWIM 2012 /13 Annual Water and Sewerage Data Due Dates
Date: 29-Jun-2017
All Water Service Providers in Queensland have been asked to collate and submit their annual 2012-13 water data report to SWIM. SWIM is now the main method for Queensland Water Service Providers to submit their annual water data to the ABS, BoM, Queensland Government and NPR. Last year more than 88% of councils reported data through SWIM, which is not only providing valuable information to the State and Federal Governments, but also back to you in the form of the benchmarking report and your individual comparative reports.
Every Water Service Provider in Queensland should have received information from qldwater in the past month regarding accessing and using the SWIM system to submit water data. Please contact qldwater at swim@qldwater.com.au, or 4124 3723 if you have any queries regarding your SWIM reporting – we appreciate reporting can be a complicated task and are happy to assist you in any way we can.
Important dates – SWIM annual water data submission is due by:
- BoM reporting WSPs (just the BoM relevant data): 31st August
- NPR reporting WSPs (those with over 10,000 connections): 30th September
- All other WSPs (ABS and Qld Govt data): 21st October
qldwater would appreciate receiving the data as soon as possible, (at least 5 days before this deadline if possible), so that we can run it through our quality control checks before submitting it to the relevant people on the dates provided above. If you need an extension please contact us immediately.
SWIM was developed by qldwater, on behalf of Water Service Providers, to simplify the task of water data reporting. With your support and use of SWIM, we can continue to encourage government water data reporting to be rationalised and streamlined through systems such as SWIM. We urge you to submit your annual water data through SWIM on time so that its future as a water-industry-driven system is assured.
We welcome your feedback on SWIM. For more information please contact David Scheltinga (dscheltinga@qldwater.com.au or (07) 4124 3723; or visit www.swim.qldwater.com.au).
