  • Macquarie Roscco
    MACQUARIE ROSCCO Update on Current Flows 21 January 2020 The recent rain in the catchment below Burrendong Dam has produced some inflows in the tributaries downstream. The flows are being managed under the tributary flow management plan. The rainfall over three days since 16 January in Burrendong catchment has ranged between 10 and 26 mm. The rainfall in the tributary catchment below Burrendong Dam has ranged between 8 and 66 mm. The rainfall has been patchy and the consequent catchment response to flows has been varying. Bell River at Neurea peaked at 3400 ML/d and then rapidly dropped. Little River @ Obley peaked at 6000 ML/d and rapidly dropped. Little River @ Arthurville estimated to have produced double the volume produced at Obley. Talbragar with nil flows. The resultant flows in the Macquarie River at Dubbo has peaked at 4,500 ML/d on midnight 17 Jan and Baroona has peaked at 3,900 ML/d on 18 Jan and Gin Gin has peaked at midday today 20 Jan at 2500 ML/d.

Over the weekend WaterNSW have contacted several representatives of the regulated creeks and the Macquarie River below Warren from the Macquarie Cudgegong ROSCCo to ascertain the stock and domestic water requirements and also to understand the risks and benefits from diverting some of the flows. WaterNSW have also met with the environmental agencies on the weekend to discuss the critical environmental needs in the regulated creeks and river where the flows are stopped in response to drought operation.
