@Kate_McBride_1 @RoseBJackson @ChrisMinnsMP It's extremely unfortunate almost all of the buybacks to date (and those that are being proposed) are on the Murray River which does nothing to help the Darling-Baaka issues. The Murray doesnt have the capacity to handle the transfer of all of this additional water.

Buybacks are the cheapest and most effective way to save this river. Big irrigators upstream have had it too good for too long, it’s time to look after downstream. Contact @RoseBJackson & @ChrisMinnsMP to tell them you care about what’s happening along the Darling-Baaka.

@RichardCBeasley It's always seemed strange the intense focus on water recoveries in the southern basin above natural and physical constraints in the river system which mean the additional water cannot be delivered & in any event does nothing to help this ecological disaster on the Darling River

I defended NSW irrigators from illegal water buy backs for environmental flows to S.A. this week in Parliament. The NSW State and Federal Govts must understand that it’s not ok to steal 450GL of water from irrigation communities. Buy backs are a wrecking ball.

@MaryanneSlatte1 The Natural Resources Commission and @MaryanneSlatte1 are right - without a volumetric benchmark to reconcile future actions against, there is nothing to hold bureaucrats accountable from either massive overreach into consumptive water or visa versa. It's multiple steps backwards

10 times worse than the last major fish kill in 2019. The Water Management Act 2000 stipulates reviews are required every 5 years yet they've never occured. Who will step up and try to fix this? twitter.com/theprojecttv/s…
The Project@theprojecttv

Few people outside of Menindee have heard of it before, a catastrophic fish kill five years ago. Now, millions of fish once again have been found dead as locals plead for more help from authorities. Water researcher @kate_mcbride_1 explains what is causing the mass deaths.

@david_papps55 Beyond keeping the maximum 30% carryover for next year, what other environmental waterings are required this year? Why not spill the excess water now so allocations to the productive sector can maximise the wet conditions whilst the Valley remains well under the SDL

@HorneLegal If you want to make the preposterous and deeply offensive argument that EWHs have enough water to replicate the current extent and duration of flooding (they don't) and that they would choose to do so (never going to happen), do so. That way we can know what you stand for...

If the intention is to move to SDL reporting, surely someone needs to check the SDL is less than Cap. Unfortunately this has been ignored & NSW will licence over-extraction in northern NSW and the Commonwealth is looking to make up for it by taking further water from southern NSW

@MD_Basin_Auth released another report to approve NSW changes to the BDL by stressing how important it was to compare them to Cap - then in the next paragraph admitted it didn't formally assess the models against Cap or new "Cap scenario". It's worthless mdba.gov.au/publications/i…

@soupercocky Cherry-picking soundbites from a document that isn't publicly available and which we do not know the process or the veracity of (or the responses to it) is inappropriate. They could have just asked the people named, rather than a new employee of MIL with just 6 weeks in the role.

@HorneLegal doesn’t think the contents of the Deloitte report are a problem, it’s the procedures under which they were discussed.
Horne Legal@HorneLegal

@soupercocky @acccgovau @nswpolice If you are referring to a politician using a public forum to refer to a non-public, private document as if it's a "finding", it's not fraud but it is contrary to the Parliamentary guidelines for procedural fairness to those with knowledge of the matter but not allowed to respond

@soupercocky A comprehensive Inquiry and full transparency is something we definitely support. Water ownership and trades (including those by EWHs) should be made publicly available and transparent and must adhere to the Basin Plan Water Trading rules to ensure integrity and public confidence

They do, but perhaps we need to ensure the behavior of those at high levels of ag is appropriate, do you think the following is appropriate or should you join the call for a full public enquiry @HorneLegal

Thankfully it has rained a lot and water storages are full. However, in supermarkets today, supply is struggling to keep up with demand & food prices are soaring. More foresight is needed to protect food production in Aust Farmers need water to grow food theaustralian.com.au/nation/politic…

@soupercocky @acccgovau @nswpolice Procedural fairness requires the person under investigation to be given a reasonable opportunity to put their case. The appropriate thing to do was to direct the question to the people who are the subject of the allegation and allow them to respond. Frankly, it was unbecoming

In 2020, Australian leaders were crowing that we are a country of 25 million producing food for 75 million. That statistic sounds absurd today if you visit a supermarket. We must protect those producing staples such as dairy, wheat, rice, fruits and beef. theaustralianfarmer.com/littleproud-sl…
