Manner:

How allocation levels are determined:

The Available Water Determinations procedure is generally divided into 2 sections: the available water asset and system commitments. Once system commitments have been met, the available water asset is then available for distribution to the access licence categories in order of priority. The volume of the announced allocation is expressed as the percentage of share component of the licence or as a volume per share. For further details of the methodology, please see the General Purpose Accounting Reports for the Lachlan and Belubula catchments.

Guidelines for setting Available Water Determinations are set by the Water Sharing Plan for the Belubula Regulated River – High Security.
