Our new De-sal plant seems to be killing our gulf.

While you sit as a king in a life of luxury.

We back in good old SA, are sinking with your decisions as premier.

Will we be told the truth...?

Just read the article, seems to be recognising an algal bloom due to hot weather as the cause. Spose it is better to not use all the facts when spinning a story though.

An algae bloom at Stanvac, how convenient.

The longer it runs, the worse it will get.

I passionately despise Rann, but I think the desal and this incident are unrelated

Rann, desal and this incident are all mutually exclusive ...

It is rumoured that Rann orchestrated the fall of the Soviet Union and that he also played a pivotal part in the Paul McCartney conspiricy. :lol:

I think we should wait for some evidence before jumping to conclusions.

The increase in salinity in the gulf caused by the running of the desal plant for an entire year is less than the increase in salinity as a result of the evaporation in the gulf that occurs on a single 40 degree day.

True story.

It is Karma though
Labor steals the Libs plan to build a desal plant at Pt Stanvac, doubles the capacity (so we all go "wwwwwooooo, look at that) and it then all goes pear shaped.

Could the temperature that the returned water is hitting the gulf be an issue if its differnet from the temperature of the water at the release point?

Anyone remember the two weeks of hot humid weather we had not long back? Unusually humid for down here and an alage bloom has formed. Fish died off over here on the west coast as well, with no desal plants over here.

End of thread.

Yeah, it's been killing the gulf for ~8 months.

Media Mike delayed his quitting just so he could be around in time to get this photo opportunity...
