I checked this out and its ridgy didge
http://rivermurray.com/html/petition/on ... ition.html
Aiming for 100,000–1,000,000 people to sign the online petition to make the government take notice. It only takes a moment. If you can get some of your friends to do this – that will also help. So far about 31,000 people have done so.
"We're really concerned with what's happening to this beautiful waterway and lack of future water security issues, take serious action NOW because it's a national shame and tragedy"
As you've signed the petition we're asking that you encourage 10 people or more you know to do the same. They can be family, friends, work mates, school mates...anyone. The government won't take this seriously unless we the people collectively let them know that all the money that's being collected through GST and alike is also allocated to one of Australia's most precious and important Australian resources.
As you know it only takes a couple of minutes so please email all the people you know and lets change the course of the country's future through unified voices rather than face the dire consequences.â€

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

*Done*
But what the river system really needs is RAIN not signatures. There's only so much the Govt. can do.
Exit on the right in the direction of travel.

That said, if I hear one more hopeless, generic response from Karlene Maywald, I will personally take her to the Amazon, put her in a basket, and send her up the river.
My cat has more insight, and she spends half the day with her head in a bowl of dead fish.

Realistically, i think that SA is the most hard done by in this whole deal. SA relies almost entirely of this water and the stupid selfish states upstream don't really give a crap if SA dries up entirely or not. They are just looking to line their own pockets.
