River Murray flow and use in South Australia

The South Australian government is committed to open and transparent water management and accounting along the length of the River Murray.

Murray-Darling Basin Ministerial Council out-of-session 75 allowed trading from SA Water’s Metropolitan Adelaide River Murray Licence for four years. During this period, there was an associated obligation to publish quarterly reports on River Murray water use and river flows in South Australia. This obligation expired in June 2023.

All published historical quarterly and annual reports remain available online.

Historical annual reports on water use in South Australia can be accessed on the Murray-Darling Basin Authority’s website.
