Sydney advocate Mr. B R T McKay floated a plan to divert the Snowy River into the Murrumbidgee to supply Sydney with up to 150 million gallons daily and add 2000 acres of water to the Murrumbidgee. A dam at Bil Winger Whelaw Cooma would hold about 1 000 000 acre feet, storing water for over 2 000 000 acres on the Murrumbidgee with 400 000 acres irrigable. The hydro electric plant would accompany the scheme, potentially surpassing Burrinjuck.
