Victorian Water bills to rise dramatically

I am studying the rise in water Bills from the 1/07/2010 many bills will rise between 10% to 20% each year. I expect this to continue on a compounding basis: over four years, water bills could double from an average of $700 to $1400 annually per home. Private sources advise me that this rise and rate of rise is extremely likely, as the government uses water prices as an indirect form of taxation.
This is to pay for the very expensive Desalination plant at Wonthaggi, and the Pipeline from Lake Eildon to Maroondah.
The running cost of the Desal plant, which will be expensive to run and finance, it is reliant on a wind power plant being built for the electricity, too. So we have to pay for the wind power station, too.
There are ways to cut your water bill, as set out in my prior post. Every Victorian family will soon be made acutely, aware of the water saving measures of Tanks, taps, Dual flush systems, aerated taps, grey water systems, even rock lawns.
