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.

Why would anyone believe anything the QWC representatives say? Their whole agenda is based on helping the Qld Govt to force the people of Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Toowoomba to be the guinea pigs for their grandiose scheme of using recycled sewage water for drinking supplies.. There is massive opposition to this now, especially as 4BC and The Australian are adding their weight to the cries of those who do not want this water. 4BC Online poll found that 75% are dead against it. Win News Poll was that 78% of The Darling Downs is against it, more than the 62% in the poll, just ignored.. It is time the QWC and the State Govt took notice of the people and amended this scheme to "industrial and irrigation use only" There is no proof that using it for irrigation is safe either!
