The Basin-wide environmental watering strategy, first published in 2014 and updated in 2019 and 2025, builds on the environmental objectives in the Basin Plan. The Basin-wide environmental watering strategy is the long-term plan to provide water for the environment in the Basin. The strategy guides environmental watering decisions at sites across the Basin. Sites where environmental water has been managed according to the strategy demonstrate improved environmental condition across a range of factors.
