Ok it's not that much water, but's it's alot to pull out of a dam thats already near empty.

The pollies seam to do stupid things in regard to the water at eildon. First they spent alot of money to fix the dam wall so they could get it back up to 90+%, but now they are going to pump so much water out of it that it isn't going to get back up to even close to that level.

It's really disapointing. I rember skiing at bonnie doone many many moons ago, now futer generations will only get to ride motor bikes there :(

Cheers
