		As we have had only sporadic rain in the past few weeks, the flow in the Shoalhaven River (the City's main water source) is dropping.
		If there is no significant follow up rainfall in the coming weeks and the river flow falls below 90 mega litres per day, water cannot be extracted from the river for environmental reasons and may likely lead to the imposition of water restrictions.

	25/7/2005 -- Bitter outpouring at Carr's water plan
		A $680 million project to pump more water from the Shoalhaven River to Sydney and raise the height of the Tallowa Dam threatens fishing and tourism interests and could worsen flooding in the Kangaroo Valley, residents, fishermen and tourism operators allege.
		About 200 Shoalhaven residents who attended a rally at Tallowa Dam in the valley at the weekend condemned the Premier, Bob Carr, for not consulting residents and demanded Sydney recycle its own water instead of taking more from the Shoalhaven River.
		The river was already suffering from increased salinity, pollution, heavy concentrations of jellyfish and the death of native aquatic plants because the Sydney Catchment Authority was diverting fresh water flows from the top of the dam to Sydney, said Terry Barratt, the chairman of the Shoalhaven River Alliance.

		The first settlement on the Southern bank of the Shoalhaven was 'Terar', a 1300-acre property granted to Prosper De Mestre, which he took up in 1836, after delays that lasted 12 years.
		Their lush property soon attracted other settlers, and the village of Terrara became the major centre for the area, a mantle that was only taken up by Nowra after record floods destroyed much of the village in 1870.
		In addition, HMAS Creswell naval base, just South of Nowra, is the Sea Port of the Australian Capital Territory, a situation that arose from the insistence of Nineteenth Century statesmen, that a National Capital must have a port under it's direct control.
