The subject of this report is the Denmark River Water Resource Recovery Catchment (usually referred to as the Denmark River Recovery Catchment).
The report provides an assessment of the current state of the river and evaluates various options available to recover stream salinity to drinking water levels.
The Denmark River Recovery Catchment consists of four areas: three ‘management units’ called Perillup, Kompup and Yate Flat Creek where changes in land use to manage salinity need to occur, and the almost totally (95%) forested area between the Kompup and Mt Lindesay gauging stations which does not contribute to the salinity problems of the river.
