I accept Mr. Hore's point. That is very interesting. He stated that farmers are working within their standards in the main, but that means the standards are too low in this situation. There are other factors at play here regarding water values, etc. In response to Mr. Hore's point, that will take time. One will never work that out. It is a whole shift or change.

The NPWS mentioned the ecological aspect. Is there an ecological rationale for draining Lady's Island Lake?
