I have been following media comments re this topic and some of the figures produced seem to be very rubbery.
ABC news quoted ACT as using 62 gigalitres but receiving only 25 gigalitres in the last year. ACT Government confirms $300m water security plan ABC Australian Capital Territory
Local newspaper the Cronicle 27 May 20008 quotes ACT as normally using 26 gigalitres per annum with a 40 gigalitre cap.
Are their any experts out there that can explain to me how these figures arise?
Sort of answered my own questions - ABC had an article 27th May that covered this in more detail.
Still alot of smoke and mirrors though when you consider Canberra is expected to build another 100,000 houses and grow by another 25% in the coming years and the figures do not add up.
