Somerset Regional, Administrative division in South East Queensland, Australia
Somerset Regional Council manages an area centered on Esk town, encompassing the Brisbane Valley and several water catchments northwest of Brisbane.
European pastoralists established settlements in the 1840s along Brisbane and Stanley Rivers, initially focusing on sheep farming in the available lands.
The Brisbane Valley district maintains connections to indigenous heritage through Jagera, Yuppera, Ugarapul, and Dungibara peoples who inhabited the region.
The council operates with a fifty million dollar budget, providing essential services including water management, library facilities, and emergency response systems.
The region contains two major water reservoirs, Somerset and Wivenhoe Dams, which form critical components of South East Queensland's water supply infrastructure.
