Our water development services (WDS) program assesses the water and sewerage aspects of development applications. WDS gives technical advice and prepares infrastructure agreements with land developers about water and sewerage.

The information on this page may help you with water and sewerage development in Logan. For more help, please consider our water connection advice service, or contact our team.

As-constructed drawings

Water and sewerage as-constructed drawings can be accessed using the following online tools:

• Logan City As-Constructed Plans – search for a property to find water and sewer, house drainage, stormwater and roadworks plans. Please note that the level of information available varies, depending on the property
• PD Online – to see documents associated with development applications.

If you cannot find as-constructed plans for a property using our online services, please email us at council@logan.qld.gov.au. We will investigate and let you know if records are available (please allow 5 – 10 working days). If we do not have the information, an onsite search at the developer’s expense may be needed to locate existing services.

Building over or near relevant infrastructure (BOONRI)

If you want to build a structure close to existing water or sewerage (wastewater) infrastructure, you may need approval.

A private building certifier will assess your proposed building works to make sure the works do not damage or block access to infrastructure. They will assess this against the Queensland development code and tell you if you need an approval from us.

For more information, please download Building over or near sewerage infrastructure (PDF 73 KB) and BOONRI checklist (PDF 115K).

For a copy of the Queensland development code, please visit Department of Housing and Public Works.

Capital works program

For a summary of the approved capital works items relevant to land developments for the 2018 –19 financial year, please download Capital works (approved items 2018–19) (PDF 31 KB).

Design and construction standards

For information about the water and sewerage design and construction standards for Logan, please visit SEQcode.

Design variation requests

If you want to vary from the design and construction standards for water and/or sewerage infrastructure works, we may ask you to complete a Design variation (PDF 30 KB).

To discuss design requirements and proposed variations, please contact our team.

SEQ gravity sewerage code changes – July 2019

On 1 July 2019, a new version of the SEQ gravity sewerage code took effect.

Development applications lodged after this date will be assessed against the new code. Applications lodged before 1 July 2019 may also meet the new code if an agreement has been made.

Users can currently access those parts of the SEQ code that are wholly written by the SEQ code group (e.g. design criteria and asset information specification) from SEQ code.

Access to those parts of the SEQ code that are based on WSAA codes will be migrated to the WSAA.

For more information about these changes, please visit SEQ code.
