Salinity

The average salinity of the river water was at 895 to 2001 mg / l and rose steadily. 67% of the salt load come from Perup River and the River Tone, which provide only about 19 % of the water of the Warren River. To address the salinity of the river, the proposal calls for a major reforestation program for the entire catchment area of the river.
