The first part describes what is happening in the Goulburn River, what the Constraints Management Strategy is designed to achieve and what effects it could have. It includes: What is the Constraints Management Strategy? Why is the Strategy important? What is happening in the Goulburn River? What flow footprints are being considered for the Goulburn River? What might be the effect of the proposed flow footprints in the Goulburn River? What does the community think? In the second part, 'What is happening in the subreaches?', each chapter focuses on one subreach and has been designed as stand-alone documents to allow people to easily find information on the area of the Goulburn River they are particularly interested in. Page iii Goulburn reach report, Constraints Management Strategy Summary For the past century, the Murray–Darling Basin (the Basin) has been developed with a focus on delivering water for productive use. Large dams have been built to capture and store as much water as possible to be used later for consumption and irrigation. There have also been many rules put in place across the Basin around how the rivers and dams are managed. These structures and practices are of great benefit to our industries and have greatly supported the building of our nation, our Basin communities and our economy. However, the changes we have made have affected how, when and where the Basin's rivers flow and how healthy they are. Water that once flowed downstream is now often stored, and delivered in regular patterns at times that suits production, not necessarily in a more natural variable way that most benefits and supports the environment. For many floodplain areas of the Basin, the time between drinks is now too long for floodplain plants and animals. Overbank flows that connect the river to its floodplain are vital to the environment. These overbank flows improve water and soil quality, recharge groundwater, and support native plant and animal species. Before rivers were regulated, these flows were far more common. The lack of these flows is affecting long-term river and floodplain health, and ultimately Basin communities and businesses who rely on healthy waterways. Environmental watering has been successfully done for many years in some parts of the Basin, and is one way we can deliver water to benefit the environment. However, there would be many environmental benefits if we could deliver slightly higher flows in the future to reach the floodplains (up to flows in the minor flood level range). So, state and federal governments requested that the Basin Plan include a Constraints Management Strategy (the Strategy) to explore how this might be done. The Constraints Management Strategy The Strategy is about ensuring that water can flow onto the floodplain, while mitigating any effects this water may have on property and people. For the purpose of the Strategy, constraints are river rules, practices and structures that restrict or limit the volume and/or timing of regulated water delivery through the river system. The Strategy seeks to find smarter ways to operate our highly regulated rivers to increase how often overbank flows below and in the minor flood range occur to sustain and improve floodplain health. Given consumption and irrigation needs, it is not possible, nor is it the goal, to return regulated rivers to their ‘natural’ or ‘without-development’ flows. The Strategy is also not trying to create or change how often damaging moderate and major floods occur. The idea is to make modest regulated releases from storages, generally when higher flows downstream would have

  • Goulburn River Boating Guide
    GOULBURN RIVER BOATING GUIDE Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority has prepared the “Goulburn River Boating Guide” to help boaters safely enjoy this recreation venue. Funding to assist with the production of this guide has been made available by the State Government through a grant from the Boating Safety and Facilities Program administered by Marine Safety Victoria. THE WATERWAY Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority is the waterway manager appointed under the Marine Act 1988 for the Goulburn River between the Lake Eildon Pondage and Hughes Creek, excluding creeks and streams flowing into the river and storages. This represents a distance of approximately 165 km, much of it isolated. THE BOATING GUIDE Boat operators should recognise that water flow and depths vary during the year, often at very short notice. They should exercise care to ensure that they are operating in a safe fashion appropriate to their location and not adversely impacting on other water users and the environment. The guide is intended to provide information to raise the level of boating safety awareness before people venture onto the river to enjoy the boating experience. The Goulburn River offers a diverse boating and recreational activity environment that attracts people to enjoy fishing, canoeing/kayaking and rafting. The major source of water is Lake Eildon and these waters are used for irrigation in northern Victoria, with the balance flowing into the Murray River. The varying demand for irrigation is one of the reasons for periodic changes to the river that may impact on boating. The Statewide operating rules made under the provisions of the Marine Act 1988 apply to the whole of the Goulburn River between the Eildon Pondage and Hughes Creek (downstream from Seymour).
