  • Report for the Week Ending 17 5 2006
    REPORT FOR THE WEEK ENDING Wednesday, 17 May 2006 Our Ref : M2006/00012 kes/dwg 19 May, 2006 Trim Ref : 06/10050 Rain and Inflows Very little rain fell across the Basin during the week (see attached map) and consequently unregulated inflows to Hume and Dartmouth Reservoirs declined. Inflow from the Kiewa River at Bandianna fluctuated between 400 and 1 000 ML/day primarily due to increased releases for electricity generation. Flow in the Ovens River at Wangaratta has been maintained at about 800 ML/day following an increase in release from Lake Buffalo from 160 ML/day to 400 ML/day. River Murray Operations Release from Hume Dam has been further reduced this week, which has reduced the flow at Doctors Point from 4 500 ML/day to about 2 000 ML/day. Storage in Hume Reservoir is now increasing and is currently 397 GL (13% capacity). Release from Yarrawonga Weir has been gradually reduced in recent weeks in order to slow the rate of recession in river levels downstream of Yarrawonga Weir. This has been aimed at reducing the potential for bank erosion along the River Murray through the Barmah-Millewa Forest. The level of Lake Mulwala is expected to temporarily drop several centimetres below 124.60 m AHD over the coming week. With a number of consecutive reductions in release from Hume Reservoir over the past fortnight, it is expected there will be significant reductions in river levels along the River Murray and Edward Wakool System over the coming weeks without further significant rain (see media release attached).

  • Weekly Report 28 April 2021
    River Murray Weekly Report For the week ending Wednesday, 28 April 2021 Trim Ref: D21/10590 Rainfall and inflows Little to no rainfall was observed across the Murray Darling Basin this week (Map 1). Specific information about flows at key locations can be found at the MDBA’s River Murray data webpage. The Bureau of Meteorology is currently forecasting widespread rainfall across much of the Basin in the coming week. Following heavy rain in late March, Water NSW now estimate that 800-950 GL of inflow may reach Menindee Lakes as a result of flow in the Darling River. This estimate may be revised further in coming weeks as flows move towards Menindee Lakes. These inflows are expected to result in the water stored in Menindee Lakes increasing above the trigger volume (640 GL), which means the Menindee Lakes will be part of the River Murray shared water resources. For updates on flow forecasting in the northern Basin please see the Water NSW website. Up-to-date river data for sites in the upper Murray can also be found on BoM’s website and in the Murray River Basin Daily River Report at the Water NSW website.

  • Weekly Report 23 September 2015
    RIVER MURRAY WEEKLY REPORT RD FOR THE WEEK ENDING WEDNESDAY, 23 SEPTEMBER 2015 Trim Ref: D15/78287 Rainfall and inflows It was another relatively dry week across the Murray–Darling Basin with rainfall mostly confined to areas along the Basin’s eastern and southern fringe. Very few sites recorded more than 10 mm and most of the interior remained dry (Map 1). The highest totals fell in south-east Queensland and included 23 mm at Pittsworth and 20 mm at Killarney. Totals elsewhere included 17 mm at Mt William in western Victoria and 12 mm at Omeo in north-eastern Victoria. Map 1 - Murray-Darling Basin rainfall week ending 23rd September 2015 (Source: Bureau of Meteorology) Flows along the upper Murray tributaries remain quite low for this time of year, with relatively little rain falling in recent weeks. On the Mitta Mitta River, the flow at Hinnomunjie bridge has been fairly steady over the last few days at around 1,300 ML/day. On the upper Murray, the flow at Biggara has averaged 1,400 ML/day. On the Ovens River, flows have receded. For example, at Rocky Point, the flow decreased from 1,500 to only 900 ML/day, which is quite low for September.

Introduction Southern Irrigation SOILpak aims to provide a range of best soil management practices to optimise crop and pasture yields. Soils used for irrigation in southern NSW are varied, and this manual identifies five main soil groups. Crop enterprises are also varied. The major irrigated farming systems considered in this manual are (a) rice/rice rotations, (b) summer cropping (excluding rice), (c) winter cropping, and (d) pastures. SOILpak concentrates on the skills needed to: • assess the condition of the soil with emphasis on the cultivation layer (0–10 cm) and the soil profile (0–100 cm) • understand the management options for maintaining or improving soil condition for a particular crop or pasture system. SOILpak does not aim to make the final decision for irrigators. Instead it provides soil management options which can assist irrigators to develop successful soil management strategies.
