Inc. All rights reserved. The Queensland Water Recycling Strategy is a State Government initiative to encourage water recycling that is safe, environmentally sustainable and cost-effective. This initiative will develop the best and most effective ways to manage municipal, industrial and agricultural effluents and urban stormwater as a resource rather than as a waste.
Water recycling is a key strategy for managing our water resources efficiently and sustainably.
Water recycling will contribute to Queensland's economic prosperity, protect our environment, reduce pollution and conserve resources for our benefit and that of future generations. Government, industry and the community will work together in realising this vision. A holistic approach to water recycling in Queensland will be integrated with other water management strategies and the State's planning framework. This will establish a strategy for a sustainable future, developed and implemented by the Queensland Government and pursued actively in the community. Over the past two years, representatives from the community, peak industry bodies, academia and government have provided invaluable assistance in the development of the QWRS through membership of a number of peak committees and technical groups.
