Below weir (below Donald; above Buloke Lakes) Salinity still rising in the lower reaches of the Richardson River; a small natural flow down the Avon has reached McAllisters Bridge (between the Banyena and Rich Avon weir). The salinity at McAllisters Bridge tested 7480EC's, no doubt picking up saline pools during the new fresh flow.
