Lower Murray Water (LMW) has begun a ten-day hearing to propose a plan to artificially engineer two Murray River wetland sites along the Victorian and New South Wales border.
Minister for Planning Sonya Kilkenny appointed the Victorian Murray Floodplain Restoration Project (VMFRP) Standing Inquiry and Advisory Committee (SIAC) to inquire into, and report on, the potential environmental effects of nine proposed restoration projects.
Those projects include the sites at Hattah and Belsar-Yungera floodplains.
