Northern region << BACK TO CONTENTS Who was involved » In Victoria, Goulburn Broken CMA led the coordination effort with input from North Central CMA. » The Arthur Rylah Research Institute provided advice about what flow patterns were needed to ensure the fish would be happy travellers. They also tagged the fish and followed their movements to monitor the results. » Goulburn-Murray Water helped plan how Torrumbarry Weir was operated to get the best possible response from native fish, while still meeting their irrigator customer demand. » The Murray–Darling Basin Authority and the New South Wales Office of Environment and Heritage delivered the River Murray pulse. » The VEWH and CEWH provided environmental water in the Murray and Goulburn rivers. Environmental water wasn’t needed in the Campaspe River — Goulburn-Murray Water was transferring water from Lake Eppalock to the Murray at the time, so it ‘shaped’ the delivery as an environmental flow to get the right response from the fish. 83 | Victorian Environmental Water Holder A golden perch, by Gunther Schmida
