(1) Salinity levels have been measured at the dam wall since 1951 and reservoir inflow since 1969. Monitoring has occurred on a regular basis (around every 15 minutes) meaning extensive information is available.
If the Hon Member wishes to nominate some specific dates for reporting, I will approach the Department of Water for the information. The Hon Member may like to consider whether he would like daily average, monthly average or annual average format as a more efficient way of looking at the information.
