Synopsis

 

Bribie Island is a large sand island with population centres at its southern end. The town water supply is extracted from the unconfined aquifer by means of a long trench excavated below the water table. Demand is increasing and there is a need for the evaluation of the water resource and the development of management strategies to optimise the supply. This report describes the development and calibration of a steady, regional groundwater model of the unconfined aquifer of southern Bribie Island. The model is used to assess the current situation and to determine the effects of a proposed recharge scheme.
