New group to focus on water source options ...
From ABC News:
Group said to offer independent water management information
A new group is claiming to offer independent information on the management of water in Toowoomba and on the Darling Downs, in south-eastern Queensland.
Water Facts is being launched today and has the backing of the Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce, the Jondaryan and Millmerran councils and individual councillors from Toowoomba, Pittsworth and Rosalie.
Chamber president Ian Andersen says the group will gather information on issues such as the Toowoomba City Council's $68 million water recycling project and make it available to the public.
He says too much confusion has been created by groups for and against the proposal.
"That's exactly right and you know who is right and who is wrong?
Both council, H2O and CADS [Citizens Against Drinking Sewage] have all released hundreds of thousands of words on whether or not the whole idea of drinking sewerage water is right or wrong, but the view of the chamber and many other organisations is that we are in danger of focusing just on whether or not we should be drinking sewerage water," he said.
"The issue is far greater than that."
