In response to recent rainfall, MDBA has commenced airspace operations at Dartmouth Dam.
From 5 August 2022, MDBA has instructed increased releases from Dartmouth Dam up to the current release of 7,300 ML/day at Colemans Gauge. It is expected the river level at Tallandoon will approach, yet remain within, channel capacity (3.4 m).
Please note system conditions may change over the coming days and weeks. Another flow advice will be issued as release requirements change.
Landholders and river users on the Mitta Mitta are advised to regularly check the current flows and forecasts on the MDBA website for more information on releases from Dartmouth Dam. Summary information about the River Murray system is available in the River Murray weekly report.
If you are observing bank erosion around key assets on your property, as a result of the higher river flows, please call the North-East Catchment Management Authority. They implement a riparian program in conjunction with the MDBA.
