The NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW) Water have conducted the Lower Namoi and Upper Lachlan groundwater modelling enhancement project. The project aimed to conceptualise the hydrogeology in the Lower Namoi Groundwater Source (Lower Namoi), Upper Lachlan Alluvial Groundwater Source (Upper Lachlan) and Belubula Valley Alluvial Groundwater Source (Belubula).
This report focuses on the development of a detailed three dimensional (3D) geological model and an updated
hydrogeological conceptual model (conceptual model) for the Upper Lachlan.
The conceptual model was developed to inform a future groundwater model which will address contemporary water resource management requirements, including managing groundwater level declines at the sub-water source (local) scale, characterising interactions between surface water and groundwater, and assessing risks associated with climate change. The existing groundwater model was built for water balance outcomes at the scale of the groundwater source and is not currently designed to run local drawdown management, surface water and groundwater connectivity, and detailed climate change impact scenarios.
