Mayor Thorley off on another jaunt ...

This time to the Water Reuse and Recycling Conference 2006 in Sydney:

28 April 2006

1.45pm Case Study: Water Futures Project

Mayor Dianne Thorley, Toowoomba City Council

Mayor Thorley shares her experiences with how she led the plan to build a water recovery plant to process the city’s wastewater and provide drinking water. Describing the process, the best technologies in the world for water reuse, key considerations, community education and engagement.

Do you think she'll explain to the audience how much opposition there is, how she has ignored the surrounding Shires and how her NWC funding application is stalled?

At 4.15pm on 27 April, there is a Panel Discussion on Community Attitudes to Water Recycling - that should be interesting.

Also at the Conference are:

- MP Gary Nairn, Parliamentary Secretary to the Prime Minister (Note - MP Turnbull may now take his place)

- Dr John Radcliffe, Commissioner, National Water Commission

So they should have plenty to discuss!
