  • Annual Water Outlook 2019-2020
    Annual Water Outlook 2019-2020 30 November 2019 December 2019 marks 100 years since work to build Lake Glenmaggie commenced in 1919. Glenmaggie Weir has brought many benefits to the local district. Its primary purpose is to supply irrigation to the Macalister Irrigation District, but the Lake is also an iconic holiday destination and recreation facility. Introduction The Minister for Water has delegated Southern Rural Water (SRW) with the responsibility for managing surface water licensing, groundwater extraction, storage dams and irrigation districts across the southern third of Victoria. Within this wide geographic area, SRW manages take and use licenses from waterways, farm dam registrations, licences relating to catchment dams and seven major dams, and operates irrigation districts. Water use is primarily for agricultural, urban and industrial purposes. SRW manages the Macalister Irrigation District (MID) in central Gippsland and the Werribee (WID) and Bacchus Marsh (BMID) irrigation districts west of Melbourne. The majority of the water used in the irrigation districts is for primary agricultural production, along with stock and domestic and minor industrial use. Water shares are held by individual customers within the districts and transactions are recorded in the Victorian Water Register. Blue Rock Lake (part of the Latrobe River system) plays a major role in providing cooling water for Victoria’s brown coal power generation. These are bulk entitlements held by the various companies which own and run the power stations. Blue Rock Lake and Lake Glenmaggie have environmental water entitlements (bulk entitlements and water shares respectively) that are managed by the West Gippsland Catchment Management Authority on behalf of the Victorian Environmental Water Holder.
