Data source

Data provider

ActewAGL.

Method

Reported volume is measured data retrieved from the ActewAGL Water Data Warehouse. The calculated volume of water lost through evaporation in the treatment process at the Lower Molonglo Water Quality Control Centre (LMWQCC) was calculated as the inflow to the plant, less the discharge to surface water, less the supply to irrigation.

Losses from LMWQCC were calculated as shown in the following table.

Uncertainty

Ungraded.

Assumptions, approximations and caveats/limitations

• Losses from Fyshwick and Queanbeyan wastewater treatment plants were not considered.
