Wellington Reservoir modelling - Re-evaluating yield and salinity levels

Guidance
Re-evaluating the yield from Wellington Reservoir under a changing climate and various diversion and development scenarios
Last updated:

This project identified the need for a new allocation limit for Wellington Reservoir to provide a more reliable supply for the reservoir鈥檚 water users and to maintain water for the downstream environment.

The study鈥檚 results indicated that the current allocation limit did not meet the target for reliability of supply (75 per cent) under a drier future climate and may also not support the winter release regime designed to provide water to the downstream environment.
