About this document

An analysis of rainfall records for the Wet-Dry tropics of the far north of Australia is presented. The results of this analysis are used to develop a regulatory mechanism to limit release of waste water from a uranium mine to particularly wet years in accordance with the Australian Government's environmental protection policy.
