About Me
- Name: Concerned Ratepayer
- Location: Australia
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.

Democrary is dead as we heard the Deputy Mayor and Water Portfolio Chair say that they intend to ignor the 61% of the Toowoomba Community and charge ahead to the Labour Government plan and bring PROCESSED SEWAGE to the region via the Wivebnhoe pipeline.
It won't happen for 2 years!!
This is said by a man who lives in an area where they have plenty of bore water and no restrictions.
How about sharing that water with us, Paul?

Water Referendum Anniversary
29 July 2008
Today marks the second anniversary of Toowoomba's water referendum.
Two years on and many of those opposed to drinking recycled water are maintaining the rage, despite the City's impending connection to Wivenhoe Dam.
Toowoomba Regional Council has today defended the decision as the only option.

In 2005, the council told us that the city would run out of water by the end of the year. It didn't. There is still water in the dams and bore water and GAB water. The passage of time shows just how much the council lied to try and impose its recycled water plant on the city.
