The shareholders of the statutory authority are the councils of Brisbane, Ipswich, Lockyer Valley, Scenic Rim, and Somerset.[1]
The authority was formed of 1 July 2010 when it assumed the functions of Brisbane Water, a government business enterprise that was owned and managed by the Brisbane City Council, together with the merging of water assets from the four other member local government authorities.[2] At the time, the 4.3 billion merger was the largest water transaction and second largest infrastructure transaction in Australian history.[3]
UU services over a quarter of Queensland's total population.[4]
