During FY21, for a period of four months, no water was drawn from the Wyangala dam source (Wyangala Dam is Cowal’s fresh surface water source). Water was still withdrawn from fresh bores close to the mining lease; however, this demand was reduced by 65% [4.6M kL in FY20 to 1.3M kL in FY21].
Water reuse increased from 4M kL in FY20 to 5M kL in FY21 attributed to the improved efficiency of mine affected water return from the IWL.
