Below Donald; above Buloke Lakes Salinity still rising in the lower reaches of the Richardson River; water stopped flowing at Guthrie Bridge site and Reseighs Ford Site, very small saline flow at Donald South Road site, no flow at Bullocks Head site. Apex Park site and the river in Donald in general, has plenty of floating algae that most likely will decompose and unfortunately lead to odour problems as the weather heats up and water levels evaporate. # Wimmera Mallee Pipeline Laen: 126cs
