NSW senator Deb O’Neil was in Orange on Monday to announce
joint state and federal funding for the first steps of a plan to
explore building a pilot plant to produce Purified Recycled Water
(PRW) for Orange residents to drink.


In the same way that Orange has led the way Australia-wide to
draw on Stormwater Harvesting to deliver drinking water, the next
step is to use Purified Recycled Water.


It's a decision with a huge potential impact for the city’s
future. 


This week, we find out how it could all work.


And we meet one of the new faces recently-elected to Orange City
Council
