MOUNT BOLD RESERVOIR

In reply to Mr WILLIAMS (MacKillop) (6 June 2007).

The Hon. K.A. MAYWALD (Chaffey—Minister for the River Murray, Minister for Water Security, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Small Business, Minister Assisting the Minister for Industry and Trade): I am advised the water resources of the Mount Lofty Ranges are currently being prescribed, to limit further expansion of water use in that area.

The proposed expansion of the Mount Bold dam, would increase the flexibility of operating the system, including better flexibility for environmental flow releases.
