WATER MANAGEMENT (GENERAL) REGULATION 2004 - REG 29Z

29Z Supplementary water access licences

(1) On 1 July 2009, an A or B component entitlement is taken to have been replaced not only by the relevant access licence referred to in Schedule 11 to the Act but also by a supplementary water access licence with a share component calculated in accordance with the following formula:

"S" represents the share component for the supplementary water access licence, expressed in unit shares.
"D" represents the sum of:

(a) the volume of water for A component irrigation, and

(b) the volume or water for B component irrigation,

as authorised by the A or B component entitlement immediately before 1 July 2009.
"ΣD" represents the sum of the volumes of water for A or B component irrigation for all A or B component entitlements.

(2) In this clause:
"A or B component entitlement" means a licence under section 12 or 13 of the former 1912 Act, or an authority under section 20B of that Act, being a licence or authority with respect to the NSW Border Rivers that is described as including a volume of water for A component irrigation or B component irrigation, or both.
"unit share" has the same meaning as it has in the Water Sharing Plan for the NSW Border Rivers Regulated River Water Source 2009 , as in force on 1 July 2009.
