The latest seasonal allocations for October 2022 have been announced by the Storage Manager.

Inflow to reservoirs during September was approximately 121% of average, with the total volume in storage having increasing by around 54,000 megalitres since the September water allocation assessment. This has enabled a substantial increase to allocations, with Wimmera-Mallee Pipeline Product entitlements increasing from 19% to 60% this month. Glenelg River Compensation Flow has received a 4% allocation, with Recreation and Wetlands entitlements both receiving a 2% allocation. No allocation has been possible yet to Commonwealth Environmental entitlements.

A revised system reserve rule came into effect in August 2022. A total of 20,000 megalitres has been allocated to the system reserve. Details of the new reserve rule are available from the Storage Management Rules page.
