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.

Who do they think they are kidding as this is all about getting water for Acland Coal Mine.
This is a case of looking after the big end of town and never mind the community and our need for a safe water supply.
This is one step toward bringing in recycled sewage water by stealth because no-one believes that they spent this much money on one bore.
Mayor Thorley, yes case councillors and the back room boys are knowingly misleading this community .

How can they think that this will not come back to haunt them at the next election?

The Chamber of Commerce is very worried about the quality of Councillors for the new Toowoomba Shire and whether they would have the required business acumen to manage the billion dollars or so to run this enormous Shire.
The only Councillor who would qualify is Cr Snow Manners. Ditch the rest!

The rest of the councillors have shown over the past 3+ years that they can't run a chook raffle.
