It ain't over yet ...

Following the report and photo of the concrete pour in yesterday's Chronicle, I was asked whether the project is going ahead regardless of many issues being outstanding.

The answer is no.

Current progress on the Wetalla water reclamation project does not mean that the I-PU! project is a done deal.

The Advanced Water Treatment Plant (stage 1) is not due to be completed until 2007 with stage 2 to be completed in 2009 (if the project gets the go ahead at all).

See: http://www.toowoombawater.com.au/introduction/proposed-timelines.html

The current work relates to 4 star (non-drinking) water. The advanced plant is hoping to produce 6 star water (the water the Mayor wants us to drink).

So, it ain't over yet folks. The debate is just beginning (and will now start to get interesting!).
