Murray Darling Basin Plan: What it means for Victorian rivers and wetlands
Tuesday, 12 October 2010
A Guide to the MDB Plan was released by the MDB Authority on Friday, 8 October and will be open for public consultation over the next few months. It puts forward three scenarios for increased environmental water allocations of 3,000 GL, 3,500 GL or 4,000 GL.
We believe the Murray Darling Basin (MDB) Plan needs to secure at least 4,000 billion litres (GL) of water to give the environment a fighting chance under climate change, and the Victorian Government should advocate for the plan to be strengthened, not watered down.
