The proposed Wyaralong Dam is an integral part of the Queensland Government’s plan to ensure a safe and sustainable water supply for South East Queensland’s growing population.
The Wyaralong Dam will work in conjunction with the Cedar Grove Weir and the Bromelton Offstream Storage to improve reliability of the Logan River Water Supply Scheme in drought conditions, help meet the Beaudesert area’s growing demand for water from urban and industrial development, and provide additional supply for the South East Queensland Water Grid.
Due for completion in 2011, the proposed Wyaralong Dam will supply 21,000 ML/a (when operated in conjunction with Cedar Grove Weir). The Project may be delivered a year ahead of schedule, subject to approvals.
The Wyaralong Dam is located on the Teviot Brook, approximately 14 kilometres northwest of Beaudesert in the Logan River Catchment.
