The Irrigation and Water Supply Commission of Queensland requested the Bureau to test geophysical methods in the search for underground water in shallow basins, coastal plains, or river flats. Locations south of Bundaberg were selected as test areas. The application of the seismic refraction method and resistivity depth probing showed promising results.
