Salinity Disposal Basin Report Series now on-line

November 28, 2000

The project 'On-Farm and Community Scale Salt Disposal Basins on the Riverine Plain' was jointly funded by the CRC for Catchment Hydrology, CSIRO Land and Water and the Murray-Darling Basin Commission. A series of 15 reports covering key issues in the use of salt disposal basins has been published and most are available on-line.

The CRC Project S2, 'On-Farm and Community Scale Salt Disposal Basins on the Riverine Plain, is a collaborative project between the CRC for Catchment Hydrology, CSIRO Land and Water and the Murray-Darling Basin Commission. The project, led by Glen Walker and Kumar Narayan (CSIRO), formed part of the initial CRC's Salinity Program (1997-1999).

The outputs of the project include a series of 15 reports covering key issues in the use of salt disposal basins. Many of these reports are now available as pdf files on the CRC website at the address:

Each report is also available as a printed and bound document for $27.50 (inc. GST) from the CRC Centre Office.
