The consultation period for the draft erosion management plan (Corowa to Ovens junction) ended on Wednesday, with the updated scheme due before the middle of the year.

Proposed by a committee led by Roads and Maritime Services and Murray Darling Basin Authority, the draft plan included a trial three-year ban on high wash activities like wake surfing.

Since the draft was released in December, residents, business owners and boaters have expressed varied opinions online and in community information sessions.

An RMS spokeswoman thanked everyone who provided valuable feedback over the past three months.

“The main issues raised related to environmental concerns, safety and amenity issues and business/local economy matters,” she said.

“All submissions will be considered and responded to in the submissions report.”
