Pipedream is a reality ...

Moving ahead with recycling water for industrial use:

From Ipswich Qld Times

FOR so long it seemed a pipedream but now it appears a recycled water scheme for western corridor industry could be running next year.

The scheme has been under investigation for years but unprecedented demand led to it being fast-tracked into reality.

Agricultural groups who have put sweat and dollars into the plan are now optimistic their hard work is about to be rewarded.

While talk about the scheme has yet to move on to farming use for the recycled water, discussions are in the pipeline.

The state government boasts the scheme will eventually save 250 million litres of water being taken out of Wivenhoe Dam each day.
