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.

The drought in SE QLD is only a natural occurence that is being taken advantage of by all those that would have us drink recycled effluent. It could rain cats and dogs for a month, overflow our dams tenfold and the likes of Thorley and Beattie and a few others would still try to insist that we drink recycled effluent. Entire ecosystems, tons of topsoil and millions of megalitres of fresh water could end up dead in the ocean and environmentalists would still say we should not build dams! It has all got to do with trying to make more money from water!
