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.

What a wonderful plan and the people of Toowoomba would have loved to be part of this idea.
Councils should have been looking at the growth areas and plan ahead for the future instead Mayor Thorley had to try to force us to have recycled sewage water into our homes. Fortunately we had a fighting team to lead us and we won that battle and Toowoomba will not be a part of her experiment.

The Pimpama Coomera Waterfuture Master Plan is a blueprint that will ensure the sustainable delivery of water and wastewater services in one of Australia’s fastest growing regions.
It is the largest integrated urban water cycle management program ever undertaken in Australia, and will reduce use of drinking water by up to 84 per cent.
