You're right, its the lax attitude the regulators have around this wasteful exercise. Carting truckloads of water around must use up a fair bit of fuel as well.

This is an article about just one bottled water company, others are doing the same thing in different parts of Perth. So the total of water pumped after this fashion is higher.

I think it might be Frantelle who pulls from a spot up in Bullsbrook somewhere.
