The 4350water Blog highlights some of the issues relating to proposals for potable reuse in Toowoomba and South East Qld. 4350water blog looks at related political issues as well.
It's interesting that the Qld Government's guidelines for the safe use of recycled water have still not been finalised ...

For many years, the 4350water blog has informed readers of plans by the Toowoomba City Council (now Toowoomba Regional Council) and the Qld government to introduce recycled water for drinking in Toowoomba. It has also looked at the issue from a State and Federal perspective and dealt with related State and Federal political issues. There continues to be a need for the Toowoomba Regional Council to be completely transparent in its dealings with the ratepayers and residents of Toowoomba. There also continues to be a need for open debate on the benefits and risks of potable reuse and long-term studies on the effects on humans of drinking recycled water. Coal seam gas water is emerging as a possible alternate water source for some uses for the region. The 4350water blog is a collective effort and thanks go to its many contributors.

I,m sure they will try to rush it through to stop them from having to spend any money trying to alleviate Towoombas water problems.
Come on Toowoomba city residents, open your eyes, do you not all even know that the current QLD State Government is backing the TCC recycled effluent plan and they have documented that all other proposed schemes are too costly while at the same time planning two new dams - one at Boonah and one at Beaudesert and are lookig at linking all of SE QLDs dams as one water source while leaving you poor buggers out to drink recycled @!#!.
Why haven't you all rallied against this, why do you let this happen to yourselves? Let your voices be heard! There are other options, there are other ways.
