New South Wales Consolidated Regulations New South Wales Consolidated RegulationsThe strategies of this Plan are to:
(a) establish environmental water rules and manage access to groundwater consistent with those rules,
(b) establish rules for the protection of basic landholder rights,
(c) establish cease (and commence) to pump levels and flow classes,
(d) limit the amount of water that can be extracted on a daily basis from different flow classes,
(e) limit the long term average extraction of surface water,
(f) establish an extraction limit for this groundwater source, taking into account the requirements of the environment,
(g) establish rules for minimising the local impacts of groundwater extraction on the environment, and between users,
(h) establish rules for the granting of access licences,
(i) clearly define access rules and conditions for extracting water from these water sources,
(j) establish rules for determining the water available from time to time under access licences,
(k) establish conditions that will apply to all access licences and water supply work approvals,
(l) establish water allocation account management rules, and
(m) specify access licence dealing rules that maximise flexibility for water users without adversely impacting on these water sources.
