Drought Security From Hume Dam
The plan enlarges Hume Dam capacity from 1 382 000 to 2 000 000 acre feet to meet drought risk. An additional 500 000 acre feet would cost £3 200 000 with Victoria paying £800 000. The measure would amend the River Murray agreement between the Commonwealth New South Wales Victoria and South Australia. Security for 300 000 acres irrigated in Victoria would depend on water stored behind Hume. a prolonged drought could force Victoria to curb Murray diversions to under half normal in the second year.
