Engineering options as tools for salinity management in the Spencer Gully catchment

Technical Report
Salinity and land use impact series report SLUI 5 - Identification and understanding of salinity extent in Spencer Gully catchment.
Last updated:

The report identifies and understands the extent of saline land and its impact on surface water salinity, using the Spencer Gully subcatchment in the Collie River catchment as a demonstration site.

The report attempts to ascertain the appropriate level of site investigation required for implementing salinity management strategies to reduce stream salinity.

This process included defining salinity risk, carrying out a hydrogeological investigation to understand groundwater flow characteristics and refining the operational use of the groundwater models such as MODFLOW and MAGIC.
