• While there has been good rain – over 90% of the State is still drought declared
• Recent rain events have been predominately below most regional storage catchments.
• Outlook from BOM was for drier than average conditions and above average temperatures. However latest forecast suggest some normalisation of weather and forecasts of average temps and rainfall.
• Three weeks of good rainfalls doesn’t break a “worst on
record” 3 year drought.
• Soil Moisture deficits have improved.

Project Update
Key Facts • This project will ensure Tamworth does not run out of water
based on current low inflow patterns
• Even under zero inflow patterns – will ensure we extend water for critical human needs from months to well into next year
• Give confidence and certainty as far as practical in current drought conditions.
• Had this project not been funded by the NSW Government and delivered by WaterNSW, Tamworth could have been in a very serious situation within months.
• We have avoided that situation 37

Project Update
Key Facts • More than 17.5kms of a new permanent pipeline has been laid –
90% complete
• Project has injected more than $1.3 million into the community, engaged 30 local businesses and recruited a workforce comprising one-third of local workers including tradesmen, truck drivers, fencers and heavy machine operators.
• The temporary weir, pipeline and pumps have been operational since December 2019
• WaterNSW is working closely with Tamworth Regional Council, Department Planning, Infrastructure and Environment (Water), Department of Primary Industries (Fisheries).

Stage 2 – Permanent pipeline
Stage 2 – Construction of a permanent pipeline • 18.2 km permanent pipeline from Chaffey Dam to
Dungowan Town (and connecting to the existing pipeline owned by TRC.)
• The majority of the route is along existing road easements
and land within the Chaffey Dam property boundary. • Community consultation with neighbouring landholders. • Pipeline was sized to meet Tamworth’s future growth.

Jewry Street Weir • A decision on Jewry St Weir was deferred from
Oct 19 to Feb 2020
• WaterNSW has reviewed the need for this given progress to date on new pipeline and effectiveness of the block bank at Dungowan
• Given the outcomes achieved to date – we will NOT be progressing the Jewry St Weir.
• Once the pipeline is completed and operational, we see no future need for a blockbank weir at Jewry St to secure water for critical human needs.
