SE Qld water usage drops ...

From ABC News:

The Queensland Government says water restrictions are clearly working, with daily consumption in the state's south-east down by 20 per cent.

The latest figures from SEQ Water show the region has saved the equivalent of almost 40,000 Olympic-sized pools over the past six months.

But the Primary Industries Minister Henry Palaszczuk says there is no room for complacency, with much of the state still gripped by drought.

"Our dam levels are still at 34 per cent ," he said.

"Whilst rain has fallen and we've had quite severe thunderstorms throughout south-east Queensland, the rain has not fallen where we need it to fall."

Sounds like it's still time to come up with some sensible suggestions on how to resolve the water crisis, rather than the quick and dirty reviews to date of Toowoomba's water options ...
