in regard to composting toilets, the blue mtns city council say:

"the poor performance was mainly due to cold weather and high shock loads. What I mean by that is that it would not be used for a week then get a lot of use for the weekend. The ones at the govetts leap lookout had to be removed by NPWS for this reason and peolple were putting all sorts of other rubbish down them"

And the sewer at Blackheath ends at the corner of shipley road and minyango st, and there are no plans to extend it.

One issue for getting a pit toilet with suck-truck access is that there are still towns in the Bluey's without a public toilet, and hence it's hard for the council to justify building another one around blackheath area when there's already one in town.
