Report Fish Deaths

Heavy rainfall is expected across many parts of the State, which can cause poor water quality as organic matter and ash runs into waterways. These conditions increase the risk of fish deaths in already stressed river systems. If you observe dead fish in your local waterways you can report them by calling 1800 043 536.
