Background

Sessions were held in late 2019 to find out about what the upcoming season may be like in terms of weather, climate and how the water is managed in the River Murray at a free information session in your community.

The Murray–Darling Basin Authority (MDBA), the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) and the Commonwealth Environmental Water Office (CEWO) will present information on:

  • climate outlook for the upcoming season
  • River Murray operations and
  • water for the environment activity in the southern Basin

The Department of Agriculture will also attend to answer your questions.

Local residents are welcome to join the session to see the latest climate outlook and hear about what the government agencies will be doing in the Basin in the upcoming season. It’s an opportunity to stay informed and ask questions.
