wa water pipeline/canal, page-5

:)

Hi folks,

..... a canal is the dumbest idea yet, the first
terrorist with a truck load of cyanide tailings
from a local goldmine will be able to contaminate
the city's water supply in about 5 minutes.

Anyway, there's no need to bring water all the
way down from the Kimberley, we already have
400 years supply in the desert, much closer
to Perth ..... if they want to replenish it, then
run a short pipeline from the Kimberley to the
northern end of officer basin.

By bringing it in from the desert, they can also
generate power, as Kalgoorlie is 360 metres
higher than Perth ..... yes, we have been pumping
water uphill to Kal for over 100 years ..... maybe,
it is time for a change ..... !~!

-----

If WA. doesn't do it, then SA will soon see value
in such a scheme, as the water from the Officer
Basin is as sweet as mothers' milk ..... !~!

..... and desalination is waaaaay too expensive.

happy days
