| 1 Ml/d = Megalitres per day =
1,000 m3/d. 2 The division of yields into separate categories is approximate. 3 Figures are taken over the twelve month period commencing 1 April in the year stated. 4 Yield from feeder intakes is included with that of reservoir fed. 5 For 1986 only, the total number does not include compensation reservoirs. |
