Talk:Cubbie Station

message: In 2004-05 Sydney Water supplied 526,367 megalitres to homes and businesses in Sydney for the year. This means on a good year, Cubbie Station uses almost as much water as the 4.2 million customers of Sydney Water. (Source: Sydney Water Annual Report)
: People often quote statistics like this to make it seem Cubby Station is somehow greedy and using more than its fair share of water. The fact is, they use their allocation and they use it quite efficiently. If they had more water they would grow more cotton. When they have less water they grow less cotton. The amount of water they use to do this is not comparable with urban use. --Dave 23:15, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Cubbie Station and the giant levee banks that have been created to divert so much of the river. Graziers in northern New South Wales used to rely on river floods to give some fertility to floodplains in the area. That no longer happens because the greedy Queensland Government is locking up the river system. That is having a terrible effect on farmers in New South Wales who should benefit from that river flow. It is also having severe environmental effects.
In 1996 Narran Lakes, a wetland of international significance, recorded the third largest straw-necked ibis water bird breeding event in Australia. Narran Lakes, part of a lake system that has been listed under the international Ramsar convention, has been starved of water as a result of the greedy actions of the Queensland Government. Narran Lake Nature Reserve, which was dedicated in 1988, is on the register of the National Estate. It is being starved of water as a result of water storages in Queensland—storages with a capacity of over one million megalitres, or about the same capacity as all the on-farm storages in the whole of the New South Wales section of the Murray-Darling Basin, a massive proportion of the flow from this area.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.104.34.45 (talk) 10:17, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
