This dashboard displays reportable sediment and nutrient pollutant loads for waterways monitored by the Catchment Water Quality Alliance.

The loads dashboard provides several ways to explore the data:

• Through a map interface that can be filtered to a single analyte, a sampling year, and the selected regions.
• Through graphical plots, showing the breakdown of loads across sites, regions, sampling years, and analyte types.
• For reporting purposes, all loads data are rounded to two significant figures.
• All loads data provided in this dashboard are based on the best available discharge data in the year of calculation. These data are occasionally subject to revisions that may not be represented in this dashboard.
• The map only displays reportable loads for subcatchments in a given sampling year. Non-reportable loads are excluded to ensure clarity and relevance.
• Discharge data in the plots are obtained from a range of sources and may not come from the same site that loads are calculated from.
• All reportable loads are available for download in tabular format from Tahbil – Water Quality Portal (opens in a new tab).

More information about the loads methodology can be found in the “Methods” and "Program Information" buttons.

Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the data, the Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation makes no representations or warranties about its accuracy, reliability, completeness, or suitability for any particular purpose and disclaims all responsibility and all liability (including without limitation, liability in negligence) for all expenses, losses, damages (including indirect or consequential damage), and costs which might be incurred as a result of the information being inaccurate or incomplete in any way and for any reason.
