ʻO ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana a me ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana o ka wai holoi wai nui ke kumu kūʻai i nā mea hoʻolako wai wai ma ka hikina hema o Queensland ma kahi o US $1 miliona i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
Ma ka waena o 2022, hiki i nā holoi holoi, nā kāwele pepa, nā tampons a me nā ʻōpala pipi ke lawe i kahi hōʻailona "hiki ke holoi ʻia" e hōʻike i nā mea kūʻai aku ua kū ka huahana i nā kūlana aupuni.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Colin Hester, ke poʻo o ka hoʻonā kaiapuni ma Urban Utilities, ʻoiai ʻo ka nui o nā huahana i kapa ʻia ʻo "flushable", ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo e holo lākou i loko o ka lua.
"Ke hana nei mākou ma kahi o 4,000 blockages i loko o ka pūnaewele paipu wai i kēlā me kēia makahiki, a ke hoʻolilo nei mākou i $ 1 miliona hou i nā kumukūʻai mālama i kēlā me kēia makahiki," wahi a Mr. Hester.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ʻaʻohe mea e kāpae i ka huahana mai ka hoʻolaha ʻana he flushable no ka mea ʻaʻohe kuʻikahi ma ka maʻamau.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia: "I kēia manawa, ʻaʻohe kuʻikahi aupuni ma waena o nā mea hana, nā mea kūʻai aku a me nā ʻoihana pono i ka mea e like me ka flushability."
"Me ka puka ʻana o nā kūlana flushability, ua loli kēia kūlana, a he kūlana i ʻae ʻia ma waena o nā ʻaoʻao."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Mr. Hester, ʻo ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā holoi holoi a me nā kāwele pepa a me ka pepa toilet ka mea maʻamau ka paʻakikī a ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o kā lākou huahana.
"Hoʻokō ʻia kēia ikaika ma ka hoʻohui ʻana i kahi adhesive a i ʻole kahi papa paʻakikī ma mua o ka pepa toilet maʻamau i ka mea," wahi āna.
Wahi a Urban Utilities, 120 tons of wet wipes (e like me ke kaumaha o 34 hippos) e wehe ʻia mai ka pūnaewele i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
I nā manawa he nui, hiki i nā holoi holoi holoi ke hoʻopili a i ʻole "cellulite" - kahi nui o ka ʻaila condensed, ka momona, a me nā huahana e like me nā kāwele pepa a me nā holoi holoi e pili pū.
ʻO ka mauna momona nui loa i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma ka pūnaewele Urban Utilities ua wehe ʻia mai Bowen Hills i 2019. ʻO 7.5 mika ka lōʻihi a me ka hapalua mika ka laulā.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Mr. Hyster, ʻo ka hoʻopaʻi ʻana o ka mea hana i hiki ke hoʻolaha ʻia kekahi mau huahana ma ke ʻano he "flushable" ke hiki ʻole ke hoʻoheheʻe ʻia i loko o ka ʻōnaehana.
"ʻO kekahi mau holoi holoi i loko o ka plastic, a inā paha e pau ka holoi ʻana, hiki i ka plastic ke komo i loko o nā biosolids a i ʻole ke komo i ka wai e loaʻa ai," wahi āna.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Anna Hartley, ka waha ʻōlelo o Urban Utilities, ʻo ke kumu kūʻai maʻamau o ke aupuni i kēia manawa i ke kahua kūkākūkā lehulehu he "mea hoʻololi pāʻani" i ke "kaua kūʻai kūʻai kūʻē i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i nā holoi holoi."
"ʻAʻole pili ka flushability standard i nā holoi holoi holoi; pili pū ia i nā ʻano huahana ʻē aʻe, me nā kāwele pepa, nā holoi pēpē a me nā ʻōpala pōpoki, "wahi a Ms Hartley.
"E hōʻoiaʻiʻo kēia i nā mea kūʻai aku i ka wā e ʻike ai lākou i ka lepili hou 'hiki ke holoi ʻia ma ka huahana, ua hala ka huahana i nā kūlana hoʻāʻo koʻikoʻi, hoʻokō i ke kūlana aupuni hou, a ʻaʻole ia e hōʻino i kā mākou ʻupena hili."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Ms. Hartley, ʻoiai ke kūkulu ʻia nei ka maʻamau, he mea nui i ka poʻe kūʻai aku e hoʻomanaʻo e holoi i nā "ʻekolu Ps-pee, poop a me ka pepa."
"Ke mālama ʻia nei nā mea kūʻai aku i ka pōʻeleʻele me ka ʻole o nā kūlana aupuni, ʻo ia ka mea e hiki ai i nā mea kūʻai ke hana i nā koho maʻalahi a hana i nā mea kūpono," wahi āna.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Mr. Hester, i ka wā e hoʻomohala ai i ka maʻamau, ua holo nā mea noiʻi i nā huahana like ʻole i hiki ke hoʻolei ʻia i loko o ka lua ma o ka hoʻāʻo hoʻāʻo lōʻihi o ka Organization Innovation Center ma ka Baggage Point Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Hāʻawi mākou i nā ʻaoʻao mua i hana ʻia no ka poʻe hoʻolohe kūloko ma kēlā me kēia mokuʻāina a me ka teritori. E aʻo pehea e koho ai no ka loaʻa ʻana o nā nūhou Queensland hou aʻe.
I mea e hiki ai i nā mea hana ke hoʻāʻo, ua hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻia ka ʻōnaehana hoʻomaʻamaʻa wai hoʻāʻo a hoʻohālikelike ʻia e like me ka mīkini mīkini papapihi e hoʻoneʻe i kahi pahu "swaying" i hoʻopiha ʻia me ka wai i hope a i waho e ʻike i ka haki ʻana o ka huahana.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Mr. Hester he paʻakikī ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā kūlana ʻāina no ka mea ʻo ia ke ʻano o ka launa pū ʻana ma waena o nā mea hana, nā hui pono a me ka Australian Bureau of Standards.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia: "ʻO kēia ka manawa mua ma ka honua i hana pū ai nā ʻoihana pono a me nā mea hana e wehewehe i nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo a ʻae ʻia a ʻae ʻia, e kuhikuhi ana i ka mea pono a ʻaʻole pono e holoi ʻia."
ʻIke mākou ʻo ka poʻe Aboriginal a me Torres Strait Islander ka poʻe Australia mua a me nā kahu kuʻuna o ka ʻāina kahi a mākou e noho ai, aʻo a hana.
Hiki i kēia lawelawe ke komo i nā mea mai Agence France-Presse (AFP), APTN, Reuters, AAP, CNN, a me BBC World Service, i pale ʻia e ke kuleana kope a ʻaʻole hiki ke kope ʻia.
