Darebin Creek
We set trigger levels using historical stream flow data for both the implementation and lifting of bans on the taking and use of water. Bans are implemented or lifted when a catchment-specific trigger has been met.
Trigger levels
The triggers have been set to ensure water is shared fairly between licenced diverters and the environment.
| Dates | Ban | Restriction |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Jul - 30 Jun | 4.0 | N/A |
Bans are implemented or lifted when a catchment-specific trigger has been met, based on an instantaneous stream flow.
Cannot resume taking water until the 3 day average is greater than 4.0
The full details for the licence conditions can be found in the local management plan for Darebin Creek.

Flow levels are monitored by gauges (data logging stations) that provide continuous flow readings. The data logging station for Darebin Creek is located at Bundoora (229612).
