Linda gave a really interesting interview explaining about the licensing processes for Sydney Water. Sydney Water are not answerable to the Department of Environment and conservation, unless they fail to meet standards through negligence.
they do however issue the license to Sydney Water under which there are conditions by which the plants have to be managed. each license is separate and so the desalination plant would have a separate one to the Cronulla STP....mmm interesting
Linda also gave me some really interesting information on the EPA's recommendations on the reuse of effluent.
About Me
- Georgina Wiles
- I am an Journalism Student at the University of Wollongong. Born in the dusty ochre bowl of the Orange Free state in South Africa and raised among the damp green affluence of Southern England, I was always aware that there was much more out there than the immediate. Following the completion of my secondary school education, the option of further blind studying was far outweighed by the attraction of some wide eyed investigation. At 18 I began planning a trip to South America, starting purposefully in the country I knew the least about; Ecuador.Having joined a voluntary conservation organization I spent the fateful year of 2003 working and traveling in South and Central America. This journey in a very roundabout and poorly planned manor brought me via Southern Africa to the place I now call home; Australia. The unique cultural confluence which exists in Australia has captured my imagination since arrival and from this source of fascination I have found fuel for my interest in Journalism.
