Materials and Substances inContact with Drinking WaterIntroduction
Materials, products and substances used to collect, contain, control or treat water may also
contaminate drinking water. The “ Australian Drinking Water Guidelines”1 encourages the
protection of drinking water from catchment to consumer. One of the important factors
influencing the quality of drinking water provided to consumers is the effect of various materials
and substances that may come into contact with the drinking water as it is collected and
supplied throughout the distribution system.The Department of Health (Western Australia) only supports the use of any material, product or
substance in contact with drinking water if it has been approved for its intended purpose.
Schedules have been created for the following specific purposes:
Schedule 4 – Chemicals and Materials Assessed – Not Approved
Schedule 4 lists chemicals, products and materials that have been presented to theDepartment of Health and have not been approved for use in association with any drinkingwater application inn Western Australia.
Schedule 5 – Approved Materials
Schedule 5 lists products (linings, paints, resins etc) compliant to Australian Standard ‘ AS/NZS
4020:2005 Testing of products for use in contact with drinking water ’ that have been examined
and approved by the Department of Health for drinking water applications.
Schedule 6 – Materials Assessed – Not Requiring Approval (Subject toCondition)
Schedule 6 lists products that have been presented to and noted by the Department of Health
but do not require approval as they are either to be removed before drinking water isproduced, or used in accordance with the restrictions or comments stated therein.
Schedule 7 – Chemicals Approved for Addition to Drinking Water
Schedule 7 lists chemicals either accepted or approved by the Department of Health for
addition to drinking water in Western Australia.
This Schedule makes direct reference to Chapter 8 of the “ Australian Drinking Water
Guidelines”, which provides further information about quality assurance, monitoring and
analytical advice and assessing levels of contaminants in chemicals used for drinking water
treatment.
Water treatment chemicals not listed in Schedule 7 must be approved by the Department
of Health WA before use with drinking water in Western Australia.

Schedule 8 – Chemicals and Procedures used to Maintain WaterTreatment and Distribution Systems
Schedule 8 lists chemicals and products used to maintain water treatment and distribution
systems that have been approved by the Department of Health for addition to drinking water.
Schedule 9 – Chemicals and Materials used in Water Catchment Areas
Schedule 9 lists products that have been assessed and approved by the Department of Health
for use in water catchment areas in Western Australia.
Schedule 10 - Fire Suppressants and Retardants used in WaterCatchment Areas
Schedule 10 lists products that have previously been used in fire fighting operations in water
catchment areas. These products have not been assessed for approval by the Department ofHealth as they are used in emergency situations in localised applications.
Applying for Approval to Use a Substance or Material in Contact withDrinking Water
Materials, substances and chemicals that are compliant with Australian Standard AS/NZS
4020:2005 or Chapter 8 of the “ Australian Drinking Water Guidelines” may be used in contact
with or to treat drinking water in Western Australia without applying to the Department of Health
WA. (Department of Health notification of use is recommended.)
Where approval is necessary, applicants are encouraged to seek Australian Standardendorsement of their product before applying to the Department of Health. Contact should be
made to the Australian Water Quality Centre, Victoria Square, Adelaide, phone 1300 653366 2.
The Department of Health will assess individual products only where it is not appropriate for the
national accreditation processes to be applied.
For more information about other products that may come into contact with drinking water, such
as fertilisers, herbicides, pesticides and specialised chemicals for non-potable uses such as
industrial boilers and air-conditioning units, please contact the Water Unit of the Department of
Health WA3 or refer to:
