Water Yes - Desalination No

If you take the time to read through Neil Rankins report, please take the extra time and contact/write/email/call to make your say heard!

Super imposing of the imposed desalination plant.
We did try to get an answer from the DSE about how it will look like, but were told, that they werent allowed to say due to the fact that it is going to be a PPP!

This article by Tony Cutcliffe in The Age still says it all!

Please read Tony Cutcliffes (yes, he was one of our great speakers at our first forum in Wonthaggi Follow up of Forum from 3rd September) article in the Age.

And let us repeat his invitation to come down here to see it for yourself. Even if the State Government cant manage, maybe you can.
be bothered, please be!
