Water in the newly created Goolwa Lake (the pool between the Goolwa Barrage and the dam/regulator at Clayton Bay) is running a banka.
The wetlands are full. The water is alkaline. The rain continues.
This was the site that featured in Minister Maywald’s Media Releases in May 2009 where the dangers of extremely low pH levels were highlighted. The banks in which those readings were taken are now under water. There has been no acidification of the water body.

Thank goodness for the regulator that the Finniss and Currency Creek are now acid free for the time being.
However observed Dunn’s Lagoon last weekend and there acidification is a disaster.
