Will water be purchased through the NSW Wetland Recovery Program to restore water flows to the Macquarie Marshes and the Gwydir Wetlands?
Yes – over 1100 ML of water entitlements were purchased in 2005/06 in the Macquarie valley in order to maintain and improve particular ecological assets in the Macquarie Marshes. Further water purchases funded by the Wetlands Recovery Program are currently being finalised on behalf of the Border Rivers-Gwydir and Central West Catchment Management Authorities for targeted use within the Gwydir Wetlands and Macquarie Marshes.
