This time series hydrologic modelling was done at the direction of the Connectivity Expert Panel. The panel used the modelling data to inform the proposed protection of base flow and resumption of flow targets presented in Connectivity Expert Panel Final Report 2024.
The Connectivity Expert Panel was convened by the Minister for Water to provide advice on the adequacy and potential improvements to rules in the NSW Northern Basin water sharing plans that might materially impact on hydrological connectivity. The Panel was asked to consider the adequacy of current and proposed targets and triggers for restricting supplementary and floodplain harvesting, as well as A, B and C class licences in the Barwon-Darling.
