Warrill Valley Scheme
The Warrill Valley scheme provides water for irrigation customers, as well as for urban and industrial users.
The Warrill Valley Water Supply Scheme was established following the construction of Moogerah Dam in 1961 and is located along Reynolds Creek and Warrill Creek, downstream to the Bremer River.

Warrill Valley Water Supply Scheme Operations Manual
The operating and water sharing rules in the Warrill Valley Water Supply Scheme Operations Manual were updated October 2020.
The changes made were:
- Inclusion of a critical cut off level in Moogerah Dam for releases to medium priority water allocations (all zones) and high priority allocations in Zone F;
- This means that when the level in Moogerah Dam falls below 139.04 m AHD (approximately 6,000ML or 7% capacity), releases for supply of all medium priority & high priority associated with Swanbank Power Station will cease.
- Modification to the methodology for determining the volume of water set aside to supply ‘High Priority C’ allocations beyond the current water year (the reserve volume); and
- An alternative water sharing rule that allows water to be made available for town water supply when the announced allocation for ‘High Priority C’ allocation holders is determined to be zero. This only applies to water above the Minimum Operating Level of Moogerah Dam.
