Market-based Opportunities to Improve Environmental Flows: A scoping paper

Author

Abstract

Report to Environment Australia. The objective of this paper is to promote discussion relating to the trading and banking of environmental water allocations in the context of the Australian water industry. The paper discusses issues essential to the definition of environmental allocations as well as several approaches for increasing the size of environmental allocations. It then focuses on the direct market based mechanisms of trade in and banking of environmental flows and identifies issues requiring further investigation.
