Drinking Water Management System  (DWMS)

Water suppliers in New South Wales (NSW) are required to establish and adhere to a ‘quality assurance program’, referred to as a Drinking Water Management System (DWMS). An annual review of the DWMS is recommended to ensure that it is valid and being implemented effectively. Furthermore, an Annual Report is required to be prepared and submitted to the local Public Health Unit (PHU), NSW Health.
