The waterway is also home to forty-six native fish species, including the iconic Murray Cod, and varieties of local trout, gudgeon and perch.<\/p><p>With four major dams, sixteen storage weirs, and fifteen navigable locks, the Murray-Darling Basin Authority manages this vast network of infrastructure\u2014a collective endeavour of the Australian Government and Basin state governments, with river-dependent industries and communities.<\/p><p>The Murray-Darling Basin is an extended river system that contains the Murray River, Darling River and its interconnected rivers and lakes. With an area covering over 1,000,000 square kilometres \u2013 this network of rivers, catchments, and tributaries is equivalent to 14% of Australia\u2019s total land.<\/p><p>These combined waterways are an essential water source for agriculture and account for irrigation to almost half of all Australian farms.<\/p><p>Protecting these waterways for future generations is our role as #ZeroPollutionAmbassadors.
