This study aims to help proponents develop proposals for managed aquifer recharge of harvested stormwater in the Murray drainage and water management plan area.
This study is unique in that it assesses the feasibility of managed aquifer recharge (MAR) at the pre-planning stage of development, and covers a large area being considered for development (~84 km2).
The study addresses Stage 1 of the national MAR guidelines assessment process using existing data, assesses the availability of stormwater and the storage capacity of local aquifers (focusing on the confined aquifers), and discusses the viability and degree of difficulty of a conceptual MAR scheme.
