We provided 16 recommendations to govt on their draft 450GL framework, one was to call on them to meet with groups like Macq Food & Fibre about over recovery 👇 also raising concerns about systemic over recovery and how it avoids all socio economic tests theland.com.au/story/8541139/…
Recovering 38 billion litres of water more than the Basin Plan said was needed in the Macquarie Valley has stifled jobs and income in Warren and Narromine . Now Tanya Plibersek wants to keep those communities down by giving the water to South Australia. theland.com.au/story/8545885/…
Politics showed regional communities are less important by passing the water amendment bill. Over recovered water won't deliver the 450 objectives but could lessen social disadvantage in the Macquarie & Gwydir if returned to where it should be under the Basin Plan. NSW Irrigators' Council
