The Great Forester Catchment Water Management Plan is currently being reviewed with a draft amended Water Management Plan expected to be completed during 2019.​

Since the Plan was adopted, many changes have occurred in the catchment – a shift in enterprises, a new irrigation scheme (and another on the way) and an increase in water allocation and other water developments.

DPIPWE has commenced a review of the Water Management Plan so that we manage water better and plan for the future to reflect and keep up with these changes.
