Senate submission – water protection Our water sources are all connected and need protection from overuse and pollution.

It’s not rational to carefully allocate water resources to farmers and inland towns and then let industries such as the coal seam gas industry have a comparatively free rein within the catchments they wish to mine.
It’s essential that the senate carefully protect all available water sources from present and foreseeable overuse and abuse, particularly from companies that may not feel a need to respond humanely to our environment.
