Show Notes

Central Queensland irrigators are advocating for Stanwell Power Station and the Gladstone Area Water Board to contribute to the costs of maintaining the Fitzroy River Barrage, which has seen a significant increase in water charges due to its upkeep. The barrage, crucial for both Stanwells operations and GAWBs new pipeline, is currently funded by ratepayers, with irrigators arguing that the power station and water board are benefiting without contributing. A meeting is set to discuss potential solutions for a fairer arrangement.
