    THE HEALTH OF STREAMS IN THE CAMPASPE, LODDON AND AVOCA CATCHMENTS Publication 704 June 2000 Introduction Careful management of our waterways and Having undertaken biological monitoring in Victoria catchments is crucial to maintain and improve river since 1983, EPA has a great deal of experience in health. Good decision making requires detailed the field. The results of previous studies will be information on the environmental condition of our combined with those of the current program, providing rivers. a solid background of data. This will be used to determine long term trends in the health of our rivers The Monitoring River Health Initiative (MRHI) – a and will help the protection of water quality and the biological monitoring program across Australia – was beneficial uses of our water courses. introduced as part of the National River Health Program funded by the Commonwealth. The main aim of the MRHI was to develop a standardised biological Monitoring water quality assessment scheme for evaluating river health. This Traditional water quality monitoring involves measuring was to be achieved by sampling reference sites and physical and chemical aspects of the water. Common using the information collected to build models to predict measurements include pH, salinity, turbidity, nutrient which macroinvertebrate families would be expected levels, toxic substances and the amount of oxygen to occur under specified environmental conditions. In dissolved in the water. These measures provide a Victoria the program was conducted by the ‘snapshot’ of environmental conditions at the moment Environment Protection Authority (EPA) and AWT samples are taken. Water quality conditions are Victoria (formerly Water EcoScience).
