Best Answer

Environmental issues impacting on the Torrens River include:

  • The clearing of native forests
  • removal of gravel from the riverbed for construction
  • introduction of foreign flora and fauna species
  • the fact that South Australia is the driest state - there is insufficient rainfall throughout the year to keep the water of high quality, particularly since the water has been diverted for other uses
