Hi Unitywater,
Thanks for this forum it has provided clarity on a number of matters, as summarised below as advised by Unitywater.

• The City of Moreton Bay concrete laneways under the SEQ Code are defined as carriageways. Therefore Clause 4.1 defines all water main road crossings of these laneways as carriageways and therefore required to be PVC-O PN20 (min). or as an alternate PE or DICL.
• All design/as-cons/red-line drawings revisions to satisfy SEQ Code AIS Section 6.20 Revisions.
• Unitywater still to advise if for commercial and industrial areas whether Section 5.10.2 of the Seq code requirements for temporary dead end mains apply.
• All red-line mark ups only apply to infrastructure outside allowable construction tolerances.

Whilst this forum has been very helpful, many certifiers may not use this forum or keep up to date with newsletters.
Just wondering how clarity on these topics is being distributed to the industry via. policy or by other means.   

Hi Unitywater,
The SEQ Code for Sewer defines the location of the sewer to be central to an easement.
There is no such requirement for water mains in the Water SEQ Code.

Is there a minimum distance to the edge of the easement?

Hey, 

I am looking for your thoughts and ideas.

We want to strengthen relationships between UW and AEs - we're thinking an in-person quarterly forum could be an option.

Interested to know if you're keen on this, and any ideas you might have (only rule....must be alcohol free).

E.g., What's happening at UW, specifically in Dev Services that might impact you, portal support desk, round table discussion on matters important to both parties.

Ideas below please.

Thanks,

Sim

We're a couple of weeks in....how are you going?

Hi UW Community Team,

I am attempting to lodge a connection application for a new project in the UW Jurisdiction. I have uploaded all the relevant documents and paper. However, the page becomes greyed out and frozen when I reach the 'conditions' section of the application. This occurs when I log out and back in again. I have also tried to start a new application for this project, and the same thing occurs. Refresh attempts do not resolve it. This is the only application my team and I have made so I am unable to determine whether this is an isolated case. 

Is there a limit on how many stages a connection application can contain?

If anyone else has encountered the same issue, can you provide an answer on how to resolve it. I have attached a screenshot to help explain my predicament. 

Regards,

I'm interested in hearing from you about any items/content you would like including in the uCertify newsletters going forward.

What works for you, and what doesn't?

What more would you like to see?

Thanks,

Simone

Has Unitywater resolved its position on temporary dead end water mains yet?  Particularly in relation to dead end mains leading into a future stage of development? If so can Unitywater provide an update to the industry around its expectations?  

Is the live chat for critical care still a thing? Just looking for a link to get in as I have questions and an issue!!!
