The latest seasonal allocations for October 2024 have been announced by the Storage Manager.

Inflow to reservoirs during August totalled 8,235 ML (excluding Taylors Lake), or approximately 19.8% of the historic long-term average. Persistent dry catchment conditions have significantly limited inflow to storages, with only small resource improvements identified. With limited resource improvement over the month, allocation improvements were minimal.

Wimmera-Mallee Pipeline Product entitlements increased to 12% allocation, a 4% increase on the September allocation. No allocation has been possible yet to the following: the Glenelg River Compensation Flow, Recreation, Wetlands and Commonwealth Environmental entitlements. In addition, a total of 10.6 GL has been allocated to the system reserve for the next water year.
