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.

Yes he should have to get rid of the logo from the election material.
Barry Sharp is spot on as far as the water solutions for the region go and he will get a lot of support from the No case people.
That's more than we can say for **** as he is a man who would run with the wolves or hunt with the hounds!
The purple pipe idea is wonderful but the old areas of Toowoomba will never see this as it is to expensive and all councils are looking at it for the new areas.
Put simply, **** would go along with what ever the State Government would want him to do.

Purple pipe installations on new subdivisions are an excellent idea.
It is generally impractical to retrofit existing subdivisions.
There is however a conflict backing Anna's pipeline from Wivenhoe and purple pipe usage.
If recycled water is pumped to people's homes via the Wivenhoe Dam link pipeline, it makes any purple pipe approach redundant and an expensive white elephant.
