The New South Wales Environmental Protection Authority has announced it will investigate last month's Menindee fish kills as a pollution incident.
But, after checking for more than 600 chemicals, none were detected.
Ms Sharpe said some Menindee residents were skeptical about the results of initial tests carried out by numerous agencies and urged patience for the final findings. Dr Wright said he was "very critical" of the initial testing for pesticides but thankful a deeper investigation was now going take place."This fish kill on the Darling River is gargantuan," he said.
