The big pumps are now in place on the Clayton Bay Dam/Regulator and testing has begun.
Their design flow is 150 ML a day but, according to DWLBC, they are running at approximately 180 ML a day. If the full 27.5 GL of “environmental water” allocated by Minister Maywald is pumped into the newly created Goolwa Lake, the pumps should run for about 60 days.

How long before the pumps start drawing in silt from the Lake Alexandrina the way they did at Narrung?
