Abstract | Continued population growth is putting increased pressure on Toowoomba's water supply systems. More recently, drought conditions have brought household water use efficiency issues into sharp focus. The Queensland State Government is currently reviewing grey water use under the On Site Sewerage Code of Queensland with a 'Draft for Comment' already circulated. The comments period has closed, and the document is currently with the Queensland Government for finalisation. Toowoomba City Council is actively investigating the potential impacts of this legislative change on the demand for water from the city's storages and on the environmental and health issues that may result from its use. |
