      Development of the MIWM Thesis “GIS based approach for determining arsenic impacts on the safety of drinking water supplies in the Tablelands Regional Council” Risk of arsenic pollution in drinking water supplies from mine workings in the Tablelands Region of Far North Queensland (FNQ) has been raised as a concern by local and state health authorities. However, it is not completely known, neither connected, the different factors involved in Arsenic distribution in the region. This project has taken the Tableland Regional Council as a study case for investigating the current patterns of arsenic distribution and sources in that region in the context of catchment water flows and drinking water supplies using Geographical Information System tools. The methodological approach involved three inter-connected phases. Phase 1 analysed the relationship between mines and arsenic in the Tablelands Region. Phase 2 generated a set of Exposure / Hazard / Risk maps. Phase 3 identified the IWM principles and practices at basin scale that might prevent or mitigate exposure to identified hazards, and consequently risk to human health. Risk assessment methodologies involving exposure and hazard identification and valuating, were applied for estimating the potential risk of arsenic pollution in drinking water. In order to identify the potential impact of mines on the water supply, statistical and spatial analysis were performed to determine the effect of mines in catchments in terms of arsenic concentration as well as the effect of the mines production comparing arsenic concentration in sediments upstream and downstream the mine location. These hazard–exposure–risk maps and the assessments and methodologies performed were the first attempt to identify the factors involved in arsenic dynamic and their relationship with the safety of water supply in the Tablelands region and this methodological approach is potentially novel to Queensland and Australia.
