Issues Paper: Development of Sustainable Diversion Limits for the Murray-Darling Basin

This paper explores issues around developing sustainable diversion limits (SDLs) for the Murray-Darling Basin and describes the relationship between SDLs and the other elements of the Murray-Darling Basin Authority’s (MDBA) proposed Basin Plan. It discusses the process for developing SDLs and how they will be expressed in the Basin Plan.
This paper is to help people and organisations provide input to this key element of the proposed Basin Plan prior to its scheduled release in 2010. The MDBA encourages you to lodge a submission on your views of the SDL paper (submissions close on 18 December 2009).
