Sydney Water Catchment Management Act 1998

His Excellency the Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Sydney Water Catchment Management Act 1998.

Bob Debus M.P.

Minister for the Environment

Explanatory note

The Sydney Water Catchment Management Act 1998 constitutes the Sydney Catchment Authority to manage and protect certain catchment areas and catchment infrastructure works that affect the supply of water. Previously, the management and protection of those areas and works was the sole responsibility of the Sydney Water Corporation and was facilitated by a regulation made under the Sydney Water Act 1994. The object of this Regulation is to make provision for the protection of those areas and works that will now be the responsibility of the Sydney Catchment Authority. The Regulation applies the provisions of the regulation made under the Sydney Water Act 1994 (under which the Sydney Water Corporation is the responsible body) as a regulation under the Sydney Water Catchment Management Act 1998 with the Sydney Catchment Authority as the responsible body.

This Regulation comprises matters of a transitional nature and sunsets at the end
of 30 June 2000.
This Regulation is made under clauses 1, 3 and 4 of Schedule 6 to the Sydney

Water Catchment Management Act 1998.
