River Murray Flow and Use i​n South Australia

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

The flow and use reports provide summaries of river flows at key locations along the River Murray in South Australia, water used for critical human water needs (CHWN) and consumptive purposes and water for the environment. They provide information for River Murray water users on the volumes flowing to South Australia and how much water is used and for what purpose on a quarterly basis.

The data provided is based on the best available information at the time of publication and may include a combination of metered, estimated and modelled data.  All data is subject to final assessment and reconciliation at the end of water year as part of South Australia's statutory reporting obligations under Section 71 of the Water Act 2007 (Cth).  After this process, a final end of year report will be published.

All historical quarterly and annual reports are available here. Each quarterly report is published within two months of the end of each quarter, as far as practicable.​

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