1.1.4.4 Groundwater planning and use

The Great Artesian Basin Network that is used to monitor pressure within the artesian and water levels within the non-artesian parts of the GAB is the only currently operational regional groundwater monitoring network within the Pedirka subregion (Figure 15). Additionally, there is periodic monitoring of water quality and flow of four springs within the Dalhousie complex approximately every six months undertaken by the South Australian Government (Sibenaler, 2010).
