Melbourne Water is owned by the Victorian Government. Our operating area extends from Melbourne's water supply catchments high up in the Yarra Ranges, to the Mornington Peninsula and Western Port, north to Yan Yean and west to Werribee.
We are a significant business, managing $7.1 billion of natural and built assets. Our annual operating revenue of more than $510 million is earned from water supply, sewage treatment and drainage rates. This is used to fund dividends and equivalent taxes to the Government, our operations, capital program and pay off debt.
We invest about $145 million a year on our infrastructure including reservoirs, sewage treatment plants, pumping stations, sewers and drains to help ensure we meet our objectives. We are committed to decision-making based on economic, social and environmental considerations.
An independent Board of Directors is responsible for the governance of Melbourne Water. The responsible Minister is the Minister for Environment and Water. Our people have diverse skills and expertise, and range from environmental scientists to engineers and research and technology specialists, and we place a high priority on building strong partnerships and relationships in the government, industry and community sectors.
