One month after the worst fish kill on record at Menindee, the NSW Environmental Protection Authority has confirmed it will investigate it as a pollution incident. 

In March, about 20 million fish, mainly native bony bream, died after the oxygen levels in the Darling River plummeted to nearly zero.
