Toowoomba Regional Council - Mayoral candidate Manners on water options ...

A referendum of Toowoomba residents in 2006 rejected a proposal for water recycling, and opponents are now angry that a mix including recycled water will be pumped up the range from Wivenhoe dam.
Ms Bligh says all other options were investigated by a group set up after the referendum, and with Toowoomba's dams at less than 11 per cent it is time to act.
"No recycled water" campaigner and mayoral hopeful Snow Manners says the new Toowoomba Regional Council will seek an urgent meeting with Ms Bligh over the decision.
Councillor Manners says he does not accept that it is too late to explore other options.

Water supply drinkable
Another significant step has been taken towards securing Toowoomba's immediate water supply, with confirmation council's latest Great Artesian Basin Bore will produce drinking quality water.
Initial testing from the bore at Leahy's Road has been completed, although the quantity of water available is yet to be determined.
