The likelihood of water quality issues increases under warming conditions.
Key water quality issues:
- Harmful algal blooms: Algae can pose a risk to the health of humans, animals and the environment.
Blue-green algae levels are currently elevated across much of the Basin's rivers and storages, including in northeast/central NSW, Menindee/lower Darling-Baaka, and NSW/VIC mid-Murray regions.
Water quality within the Basin is monitored by individual States. Any site-specific alerts, warnings or advisories are issued by those respective States.
