The Victorian Murray Floodplain Restoration Project is restoring high-value floodplains along the Murray River by reconnecting them to the river and building carefully designed infrastructure to support the seasonal wetting cycles that native plants and animals depend on.

The Victorian Murray Floodplain Restoration Project (VMFRP) will get much needed water back onto nine high-value floodplains along the Murray River. Without this water, these iconic landscapes will continue to decline – along with the many native trees, animals and plants that depend on them.

EES/ER technical studies under way across all VMFRP sites

Our technical specialists are currently busy assessing the benefits and potential impacts associated with construction and operation of the planned VMFRP works. These technical studies give us critical information to ensure we maximise all benefits and appropriately manage any risks.
