Private Drinking Water Caters
Are you are a private business that delivers water for sale to the public which is intended for:
- human consumption, or
- purposes connected with human consumption (such as preparation of food,making ice for consumption, or preserving unpackaged food)?
You need to know …
From 1 July 2011, a state-wide registration scheme covering water carters applies under changes made to the Food Act 1984. The changes mean you must:
- register your water transport vehicle with the council in whose district your vehicle is garaged– this is your “principal council”;
- once registered, submit Food Act statements of trade, and
- once registered, keep records about which water corporations you purchase your drinking water from.
