Treated Sewage Contamination Council Denial

Gold Coast Councillor states that recycled water is not suitable for drinking we use as much as possible for irrigation, manufacturing and agriculture.

[original post] (Input received from Darren Crawford suggests otherwise) “Steve, excuse the pun but that is bs. The City uses less than 15% of treated water in its parks and gardens. Before Tate was elected Clarke had a recycled water program (purple pipe) going into every new development in Upper Coomera to Pimpama. Tate, asked the developers what their biggest cost was and they told him the purple pipe, so one of the first things he did as mayor was abolish that program. [which coincides with the 2014 decommissioning of the A+ treatment plant at Pimpama which ended in 2017].

This meant that Clarke’s aim for 40-50% usage of treated water was never met, and now with the boom in population/housing we have more **** than ever before to deal with.

Their solution?

Spend almost 4 million and possibly destroy the surf break at Straddy by tunnelling through it to dump it 2.5Km out to sea.

SOSA has been opposing this for 2 years, please check their site/page as they may have further answers for you”.

[Original Post] FINALLY A RESPONSE RE TREATED SEWAGE – INCH BY INCH

Cr Kristyn Boulton has just provided an informed response to at least one of my treated sewage questions. It took most of the day yesterday, it took persistence, patience and putting up with constant attempts by some thug called Danny Silk to bully, humiliate and deny the situation. [response follows]

“The City views recycled water as a climate resilient water source that is a valuable and reliable resource for non-drinking purposes. The City of Gold Coast is in fact one of the largest users of recycled water among urban water utilities. Whilst recycled water is not suitable for drinking we do endeavour to utilise as much of it where suitable – including for irrigation, manufacturing, agriculture and it is used by many organisations on the Gold Coast on a by application basis. Unfortunately, there are significant legislative and economic barriers in place which make transporting our recycled water to consumers in other regions not possible. Ta KB”

Kristyn thank you, that is all I have been asking for. However, as we all knew, treated sewage as you state “is not suitable for drinking”. That leaves two other outstanding questions;

a) Why did GCCC stop testing recreational waters for E.coli in November 2017? Can you please table an item at the next Council meeting to request that they return to a regular testing regime? This is taking high risks with public health and;

b) Why has GCCC never made E.coli test results available to the public? Can you please request at the same Council meeting that these are published regularly so that us mature adults can make an informed decision as to whether we or our children take the risk to enter the water.

Cameron Caldwell and Owen-Jones have simply refused to take responsibility or address these issues honestly in spite of a full day’s FB combat yesterday and a talk-back session of denials with Cameron Caldwell on 4CRB on Monday.

These people do not have the public’s interests at heart and must go.

[EDIT – 18 Nov, 2023. ‘Mayor’ Tom Tate is now driving the insidious Agenda 21/30 ‘Sustainability’ objectives on behalf of the treacherous United Nations/World Economic Forum “You will own nothing and you will be happy” WEF Chairman Klaus Schwab.]
