Mulloon Creek

  Location: Mullon, New South Wales, Australia
GPS coordinates: 35.16326, 149.34108

Parameters

Progress on a series of research projects on 10,000 hectares of the Lower Mulloon watershed to reinstate alluvial hydration and to implement other sustainable farming practices

 

Prior to implementation

Significant reversal of channel and floodplain incision; reinstatement of chain-of- ponds system.

 

After implementation

Evidence that the project is “banking” water during higher flows and maintaining higher low flows when the weather is dry. Costs of flow-slowing installations assessed in terms of farm return.
