AGL in conjunction with River Murray Operations announced today that releases from Dartmouth Reservoir will be decreased for the purposes of electricity generation.
The current discharge at Coleman’s Gauge of 3000 ML/d or 1.9 m gauge height will be gradually decreased to 1500 ML/d or 1.57 m gauge height, commencing 9:30 am on 9 August 2023.
This decrease is expected to result in the flow at Tallandoon dropping to approximately 2400 ML/d or 2.05 m gauge height.
The duration of the varied releases for electricity generation is unknown and will be dependent upon electricity demand in the near future. A further flow advice will be issued when there is a significant change to the release program.
