Abstract

A broad range of initiatives continue to emerge which move towards more inclusive water cycle management. These reflect a diversity of contexts, perspectives and critical issues. This paper describes the recent history of one case example, the Hawkesbury Water Recycling Scheme, and the emerging complementaries of managing both reclaimed water and stormwater. Based upon this case study, it is suggested that applications will emerge which reflect both centralised linkages as well as decentralised dimensions. This is briefly discussed in relation to contemporary concepts of common property, and conclusions are drawn regarding implications for policy and practice.
