Event Navigation

Topics:
- Recent developments in the Goulburn to Murray Trade Review, including proposals for long-term changes to trade and operating rules
- Recent findings on Murray River delivery risk, including how key drivers of delivery risk are changing and what’s being done about it
- What this means for Victorian irrigators and actions that can be taken to be better prepared
- The impact of these developments and the associated management strategies on valuable ecological sites.
