Water releases happening now…

Releases are dependent on many factors, and can often change, so it is important to keep up to date.

With the weather beginning to dry and below average rainfall forecasted for the next three months, our Environmental Water team are back to busily planning how to keep our rivers and wetlands in best condition.

The next water for the environment flows are planned for spring, water will be delivered (weather dependent) to Carran Carran (Thomson River), Wirn Wirndook Yeerung (Macalister River), and Durt’Yowan (Latrobe rivers).

* Please note: Flow rates and heights are estimates, and actual heights on the day may vary due to rainfall or irrigation water orders being delivered. Also, environmental flow deliveries may be offset or replaced by natural rainfall/flow events. In the case of a large rainfall event meeting our flow targets, an environmental flow may not be delivered.

If flows are cancelled or modified, our email list will be notified and a SMS sent to subscribers who have opted in for that feature.
This page will be updated if any changes occur or you can email  eflows@wgcma.vic.gov.au if you have any further queries.
