Remember last year's floods in Brisbane? There were some interesting exchanges in the comments on my posts on the subject, with some differences of opinion between those who thought that the dams had been mismanaged, perhaps in response to green-initiated concerns over droughts - and those who thought otherwise (see here, here and here).
Earlier in the week, it was revealed that the dam in question was operating on a low-release strategy on the eve of the floods, rather than seeking to lower levels in the reservoir ahead of the deluge. Interestingly, evidence has also emerged that the official inquiry into the affair was not what it should have been, overlooking several key documents.
Now why does that sound familiar?
