Abstract
The Commonwealth Environmental Water Holder (CEWH) is responsible under the Water Act 2007 (Commonwealth) for managing Commonwealth environmental water holdings to protect and restore the environmental assets of the Murray-Darling Basin. The Murray-Darling Basin Plan (2012) (referred to hereafter as the Basin Plan) requires that the holdings must be managed in away that is consistent with the Basin Plan’s Environmental Watering Strategy (MDBA 2014). The Long-Term Intervention Monitoring Project (LTIM Project) is the primary means by which the Commonwealth Environmental Water Office (CEWO) monitors and evaluates the ecological outcomes of Commonwealth environmental watering actions. The LTIM Project is being implemented in the Murrumbidgee catchment along with six other water catchment areas for a five-year period (2014 to 2019) to inform environmental water management and demonstrate outcomes.
