This context report is for the Upper Darling River Floodplain module, which represents the easternmost ‘arm’ of the Exploring for the Future Darling-Curnamona-Delamerian project area within New South Wales. The document provides a summarised state of knowledge regarding the geography, geology, hydrology, hydrogeology and water management of the Upper Darling region. It provides baseline information relevant to understanding the regional context of water resources, with relevance to forward planning and prioritisation of further investigations. As such, this report largely represents a collation of existing information (literature review) for the Upper Darling region, with limited new information (e.g., airborne electromagnetic survey results, preliminary review of existing bore data) being presented.
