45 Total daily extraction limits

(1) This Plan establishes a total daily extraction limit (hereafter "TDEL") for each flow class as follows:

(a) 0 ML/day for the very low flow class,

(b) 2.26 ML/day for A class,

(c) 3.3 ML/day for B class, and

(d) 8.6 ML/day for C class.

Note: These flows represent 55% of the top of A class flows, 46% of the top of B class flows and in C class flows 30% of the 30 th percentile flows of annual flows.

(2) The TDEL for each flow class specified in subclause (1) applies to all rivers within this water source apart from those rivers identified as minor streams in a harvestable rights Order made under section 54 of the Act.

Note: The harvestable rights Order applying to this area at the commencement of this Plan is that gazetted on 23 March 2001 under section 54 of the Act. It identifies minor streams as non-permanent 1st and 2nd order streams as shown on topographic maps.
