4 Water source and waters to which this Plan applies
(1) This Plan applies to the Murrumbidgee Regulated River Water Source (hereafter this water source) within the Murrumbidgee Water Management Area and the Murray Water Management Area.Note.
The Murrumbidgee Water Management Area and Murray Water Management Area were constituted by Ministerial order made under section 11 of the Water Management Act 2000 published in the NSW Government Gazette No 180 on 23 November 2001 at page 9389.(2) This water source is shown on the Plan Map called Plan Map (WSP0027_Version 1), Water Sharing Plan for the Murrumbidgee Regulated River Water Source 2003 (hereafter the Plan Map) held by the Department.Note.
An overview of the Plan Map is shown in Appendix 1. Copies of the Plan Map may be inspected at the office listed in Appendix 2.(3) Subject to subclause (4), this water source includes all water:(a) between the banks of all rivers from the upper limit of Burrinjuck Dam water storage and Blowering Dam water storage downstream to the junction of the Murrumbidgee River and the Murray River, which at the date of commencement of this Plan, have been declared by the Minister to be regulated rivers,Note.
A regulated river is a river that has been declared by the Minister, by Order published in the New South Wales Government Gazette, to be a regulated river.Note.
The rivers declared by the Minister to be regulated rivers in the Murrumbidgee Regulated River Water Source are listed in Appendix 3.(b) occurring naturally on the surface of the ground or in rivers, lakes and wetlands in the area marked as Lowbidgee shown on the Plan Map.(4) This water source does not include water contained in:(a) any alluvial sediments, fractured rocks or porous rocks,(b) Talpee Creek,(c) Lake Tala, and(d) Five Mile Lagoon.

12 Performance indicators
The following indicators are to be used to determine the performance of this Plan against its objectives:(a) change in low flows,(b) change in moderate to high flows,(c) change in water quality in this water source,(d) change in ecological condition of this water source and dependent ecosystems,(e) change in economic benefits derived from water extraction and use,(f) extent to which basic landholder rights requirements have been met,(g) extent to which local water utility requirements have been met,(h) extent to which native title rights have been met, and(i) extent of recognition of spiritual, social and customary values of water to Aboriginal people.Note.
Appendix 4 details the objectives to which these performance indicators relate and the methods for assessing indicators.
Part 3 Environmental water provisions
13 Environmental water provisions
This Part is made in accordance with sections 5 (3), 8 (1), 8 (2) and 20 (1) (a) of the Act.
14 Planned environmental water
(1) This Plan establishes the following planned environmental water rules:(a) water volume in excess of the long-term average annual extraction limits in clauses 32 and 32A of this Plan may not be taken from this water source and used for any purpose, and(b) access to water is to be managed as specified in clauses 34 and 34A of this Plan to ensure water volume in excess of the long-term extraction limit is not being taken.Note.
Based on modelled diversions it is estimated that this Plan will:(a) after its 5th year, limit Murrumbidgee extractions to around 1,890,000 megalitres per year, on average over the long term, andBy doing this, this Plan will ensure that approximately 50% of the long-term average annual flow in this water source (estimated to be 4,360,000 megalitres per year) will be preserved and contribute to the maintenance of basic ecosystem health.(b) limit Lowbidgee extractions to around 296,000 megalitres per year, on average over the long term.(2) Until 1 July 2008 a minimum daily flow of 200 megalitres per day shall be maintained in the Murrumbidgee River at Balranald, when the sum of available water determinations to regulated river (general security) access licences plus water allocations carried over in water allocation accounts, is less than 80% of share components, which cannot be used to meet access licence water requirements or basic landholder rights requirements below Balranald.(3) Until 1 July 2008 a minimum daily flow of 300 megalitres per day shall be maintained in the Murrumbidgee River at Balranald, when the sum of available water determinations to regulated river (general security) access licences plus water allocations carried over in water allocation accounts, is equal to or greater than 80% of share components, which cannot be used to meet access licence water requirements or basic landholder rights requirements below Balranald.(4) From 1 July 2008 a minimum daily flow shall be maintained in the Murrumbidgee River at Balranald, throughout the water year, which cannot be used to meet access licence water requirements or basic landholder rights requirements below Balranald and is calculated using the following formula:
where the 95th percentile natural daily flow is the computer model generated natural, that is pre-regulation, daily flows for each month, over the entire modelled period, that is exceeded in 95% of days in that month, as calculated using the hydrologic computer model that, at the time, is approved by the Minister for determining natural flows in this water source.
15 Planned environmental water
(1) This clause establishes the planned environmental water rules for this Plan.(2) Transparent releases shall be made from Blowering Dam water storage in accordance with the following rules:(a) when natural inflows are less than 560 megalitres per day then the release from Blowering Dam must be greater than or equal to natural inflows plus any water use (other than basic landholder rights use) expected to occur between the dam and the confluence with the Murrumbidgee River, and(b) when natural inflows are greater than 560 megalitres per day then the minimum release from Blowering Dam is to be 560 megalitres per day plus the volume of water use (other than basic landholder rights use) expected to occur between the dam and the confluence with the Murrumbidgee River.(3) A transparent release volume for Burrinjuck Dam water storage shall be calculated each day and shall be the lesser of:(a) the volume of inflows to the storage over the previous 24 hour period, and(b) 615 megalitres.(4) On each day between 22 April and 21 October, when Burrinjuck Dam water storage inflows are greater than 615 megalitres per day, the catchment condition for the Burrinjuck Dam catchment will be assessed by:(a) comparing the average flow in the Goodradigbee River at Wee Jasper over the preceding 24 hour period with the flows listed for the corresponding date in the table in Schedule 3,(b) when the Goodradigbee flow is less than or equal to the flow listed in column 2 of the table in Schedule 3 the catchment condition shall be deemed to be dry,(c) when the Goodradigbee flow is greater than the flow listed in column 2 of the table in Schedule 3 but less than the flow listed in column 3 of the table in Schedule 3 the catchment condition shall be deemed to be normal, and(d) when the Goodradigbee flow is equal to or greater than the flow listed in column 3 of the table in Schedule 3 the catchment condition shall be deemed to be wet.(5) On each day between 22 April and 21 October a Burrinjuck Dam translucent release volume shall be calculated by multiplying the calculated Burrinjuck Dam water storage inflow over the previous 24 hours and the appropriate percentage from the table in Schedule 4, using the catchment condition classification determined in subclause (4), and at all other times the translucent release volume shall be zero.(6) Unless operational constraints prevent all or part of this release being made, the release during the succeeding 24 hours from Burrinjuck Dam shall be made according to the following:(a) if the volume calculated under subclause (3) and subclause (5) is less than 300 megalitres, the release shall be 300 megalitres,(b) if the volume calculated under subclause (3) is greater than or equal to the volume calculated under subclause (5), the release shall be made according to the following:(i) if the volume calculated under subclause (3) is greater than 300 megalitres but less than or equal to 450 megalitres, the release shall be that volume, and(ii) if the volume calculated under subclause (3) is greater than 450 megalitres but less than or equal to 615 megalitres, the release shall be 450 megalitres,(c) if the volume calculated under subclause (5) is greater than the volume calculated under subclause (3), the release shall be made according to the following:(i) if the volume calculated under subclause (5) is less than 1,000 megalitres, the release shall be the volume calculated under subclause (5) less 315 megalitres per day, and(ii) if the volume calculated under subclause (5) is greater than 1,000 megalitres and less than 10,000 megalitres, the release shall be the volume calculated under subclause (5) less the sum of:(1) where the daily release balance (hereafter the DRB) volume (as per subclause (23)) is greater than zero, the lesser of 10% of the volume calculated under subclause (5) or the DRB volume, and(2) 315 megalitres per day, and(iii) if the volume calculated under subclause (5) is greater than, or equal to 10,000 megalitres, the release shall be the volume calculated under subclause (5),(d) the daily release shall be equal to the inflow to the storage over the previous 24 hours or 300 megalitres (whichever is the greater), plus the volume of any water use (other than basic landholder rights use) expected to occur between Burrinjuck Dam and the Tumut River confluence, up to a maximum of 615 megalitres, if either of the following conditions are met:(i) if the release made over each of the previous 10 days has been 450 megalitres, and the release otherwise calculated under subclause (6) would again be 450 megalitres, or(ii) a release was made under subclause (6) (d) (i) over the previous 24 hour period but not the 24 hour period preceding it, and(e) where the volume necessary to supply access licence requirements and other requirements identified in this Plan exceeds the release volume calculated under subclauses (a) to (d), it shall be taken as the release.(7) If some or all of the volume determined in subclause (6) cannot be released in the succeeding 24 hours due to system operation constraints, then the shortfall shall be added to the minimum release requirement (up to the limit of system operational constraints) for the succeeding day(s) until released.(8) An environmental water allowance (hereafter EWA1) shall be established and managed according to the following:(a) the EWA1 shall be credited when the sum of available water determinations for regulated river (general security) access licences during the water year and the water carried over in regulated river (general security) access licence water allocation accounts from the previous water year is equivalent to or greater than 0.6 megalitres multiplied by the total number of unit shares specified in regulated river (general security) access license share components,(b) the volume credited to the EWA1 shall be the volume of water in excess of that required to meet the trigger specified in subclause (8) (a), up to a maximum of 50,000 megalitres in any water year, subject to subclause (8) (d) (iv),(c) releases of EWA1 cannot be used by access licences or to meet water requirements in another water source that result from an assignment of water allocations from an access licence water allocation account,(d) up to 50,000 megalitres may be made available for use as additional EWA1 in the current water year, subject to the following:(i) the additional volume shall be made available from the second provisional storage volume established under clause 62 (3), and shall not exceed the water available in the second provisional storage volume,(ii) a need for releases under subclause (11) has occurred,(iii) there is no water remaining in the EWA1, the second environmental water allowance established under subclause (9) and the third environmental water allowance established under subclause (10), and(iv) the volume credited to EWA1 in the following year shall be reduced by the additional volume made available from the second provisional storage volume under subclause (8),(e) any EWA1 remaining at the end of each water year may be carried over to the next water year, up to a maximum of 50,000 megalitres,(f) during any flow event where water is spilled from Blowering Dam or Burrinjuck Dam, EWA1 carried over from the previous water year will be reduced in proportion to the volume of water spilled, up to a limit of 50% of the volume of EWA1 carried over from the previous water year, and(g) at the commencement of this plan a volume equivalent to the water remaining in the environmental contingency allowance immediately prior to the commencement of this Plan, shall exist in the EWA1.(9) A second environmental water allowance (hereafter EWA2) shall be established and managed according to the following:(a) whenever a transparent release from Burrinjuck Dam is made under subclause (6) (b), the EWA2 shall be credited with a volume equal to the lesser of:(i) the inflow to the storage over the previous 24 hours, orminus 300 megalitres,(ii) 615 megalitres,(b) each day that translucent releases from Burrinjuck Dam are made under subclause (6) (c), a volume of 315 megalitres shall be credited to the EWA2,(c) releases of EWA2 cannot be used by access licence holders or to meet water requirements in another water source that result from a transfer of access licence account water,(d) any water remaining in the EWA2 at the end of each water year that was not carried forward from the previous water year may be carried over to the following water year without limit, and(e) water remaining in the EWA2 at the end of each water year that was carried over from the previous water year may not be carried over again to the following water year.(10) A third environmental water allowance (hereafter EWA3) shall be established and managed according to the following:(a) the EWA3 shall have a maximum limit each water year, which shall be the total of:(i) the cumulative total of the difference between the translucent release volume from subclause (6) (c) and the translucent release volume calculated using Schedule 5, prior to 1 November in that water year, and
(ii) the cumulative total of the difference between the translucent release volume from subclause (6) (c) and the translucent release volume calculated using Schedule 5 for the period 22 April to 30 June of the previous water year,Note.
This is the difference between the translucent releases in Schedule 4 and Schedule 5, which is known as foregone translucent release.(b) the EWA3 shall be credited when the sum of available water determinations made for regulated river (general security) access licences plus water carried over in regulated river (general security) access licence water allocation accounts from the previous water year are equivalent to or greater than 0.8 megalitres multiplied by the total number of unit shares specified in regulated river (general security) access licence share components, and(c) the volume credited to the EWA3 shall be the volume of water in excess of the trigger specified in subclause 10 (b), subject to:(i) the maximum limit of the EWA3 at the time when available resources are assessed, between 1 July and 31 October,(ii) between 1 November and 31 December, the EWA3 shall be credited with 50% of the water determined using the trigger specified in subclause (10) (b),(iii) the other 50% of the water determined using the trigger specified in subclause (10) (b) but not credited to the EWA3 shall be credited to the second provisional storage volume established under clause 62 (3),(iv) the EWA3 shall not be credited from 1 January to 30 June of the current water year,(v) releases of the EWA3 cannot be used by access licence holders or to meet water requirements in another water source that result from a transfer of access licence account water,(vi) on 1 November, 50% of the EWA3 at that time, shall be transferred to the second provisional storage volume established under clause 62 (3), and(vii) on 1 January all remaining EWA3 shall be transferred to the second provisional storage volume established under clause 62 (3).(11) Release of the EWA1, EWA2 and EWA3 are to be made to provide environmentally beneficial outcomes for water bird breeding, wetland inundation, fish passage and breeding and water quality,(12) Release of the EWA1, EWA2 and EWA3 shall endeavour to provide maximum environmental benefit and be made to the maximum extent possible,(13) Release of the EWA1, EWA2 and EWA3 shall be made in the following order:(a) the EWA3 first,(b) then the EWA2 that has been carried over from the previous water year,(c) then the remaining EWA2,(d) then the EWA1 that has been carried over from the previous water year,(e) then the EWA1, and(f) then the EWA1 made available from the second provisional storage volume.(14) Before the commencement of each water year, detailed release rules for the EWA1, EWA2 and EWA3 should be developed which address the ecological objectives specified in subclauses (11) and (12),(15) An Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group should be established by the Minister under section 388 of the Act for the purpose of providing advice on the release rules developed under subclause (14).Note.
The Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group should be established prior to the commencement of this Plan(16) In providing advice in accordance with subclause (15) the Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group should have regard to:(a) the objectives of this Plan,(b) the principles of adaptive management, and(c) the ecological objectives specified in subclauses (11) and (12).(17) If advice cannot be provided by the Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group under subclause (15) releases from the environmental water account shall be approved by the Minister, in accordance with the ecological objectives specified in subclauses (11) and (12) and the release rule specified in subclause (13).(18) The Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group established under subclause (15) should consist of 9 members each with a nominated alternate member representing:(a) Nature Conservation Council or its subsequent organisation,(b) Murrumbidgee Field Naturalists or its subsequent organisation,(c) Murrumbidgee Customer Service Committee (upper river) or its subsequent organisation,(d) Murrumbidgee Customer Service Committee (mid river) or its subsequent organisation,(e) Lowbidgee League or its subsequent organisation,(f) New South Wales Fisheries, or its subsequent organisation,(g) New South Wales National Parks and Wildlife Service, or its subsequent organisation,(h) State Water or its subsequent organisation, and(i) the Department of Infrastructure Planning and Natural Resources or its subsequent organisation.(19) Members of the Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group should be appointed for a period of 5 years.(20) Members of the Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group should elect the Chair.(21) A quorum of the Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group should be two community representatives and two representatives of Government Agencies.(22) The Environmental Water Allowance Reference Group should report and communicate on its activities in accordance with procedures established by the Minister.(23) A DRB volume shall be calculated according to the following:(a) whenever a dam release made over a 24 hour period under subclause (6) (b) is greater than 300 megalitres, the DRB volume shall be increased by the release less 300 megalitres,(b) whenever releases are made under subclause (6) (c) (ii) the DRB volume shall be reduced by 10% of the volume calculated under subclause (5) for the previous 24 hours, until the DRB volume is calculated to be zero, and(c) the DRB volume shall be calculated continuously from each water year to the next.Note.
The DRB is calculated to maintain a continuous record of the net difference between the minimum translucent dam releases made under this Plan and water credited to environmental water allowances under this Plan.(24) Pursuant to section 45 (1) (b) of the Act and clause 72 of this Plan, the Minister may amend the planned environmental water rules under clause 15 to the extent specified in clause 72.
16 Adaptive environmental water
(1) At any time an access licence holder may, by a process determined by the Minister, commit all or part of their licence as adaptive environmental water.(2) The Minister may grant an access licence in a water source to which this Plan applies if the licence is subject to an adaptive environmental water condition and arises through water savings in the system made in that water source as referred to in section 8C (1) of the Act.(2A) The Minister may change the category or subcategory of an access licence in a water source to which this Plan applies if the licence is subject to an adaptive environmental water condition that arises through water savings as referred to in section 8D of the Act.(3) At the commencement of this Plan there are no access licences committed to an environmental purpose in accordance with section 8 (1) (c) of the Act.
Part 4 Basic landholder rights
17 Basic landholder rights
This Part is made in accordance with sections 5 (3) and 20 (1) (b) of the Act.
18 Domestic and stock rights
Note.
It is not recommended that the water from this water source be consumed without prior treatment. Land use activities may have polluted the water in some areas.(1) At the commencement of this Plan the water requirements of holders of domestic and stock rights are estimated to be 4,560 megalitres per year.(2) This Plan recognises that the exercise of domestic and stock rights may increase during the term of this Plan.Note.
Increase in use of domestic and stock rights may occur as a result of an increase in the number of landholdings fronting this water source or as a result of an increase in the exercise of domestic and stock rights by existing landholders.Note.
At the commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map, the water requirements of holders of domestic and stock rights in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map are estimated to total 34 megalitres per year.(3) The water supply system shall be managed so that it would be capable of maintaining supply to those exercising domestic and stock rights through a repeat of the worst period of low inflows to this water source represented in flow information held by the Department of Land and Water Conservation.(4) To achieve subclause (3) sufficient volumes of water must be set aside from assured inflows into this water source or in reserves held in Burrinjuck Dam water storage, Blowering Dam water storage or other water storage.Note.
The Minister may issue an Order under section 323 or 328 of the Act to restrict the exercise of domestic and stock rights from this water source to protect the environment, for reasons of public health, or to preserve basic landholder rights.
18A Harvestable rights
The requirement for water under harvestable rights in this water source is equal to the total amount of water that owners or occupiers of landholdings are entitled to capture and store pursuant to a harvestable rights order made under Division 2 of Part 1 of Chapter 3 of the Act.
19 Native title rights
Note.
It is not recommended that the water from this water source be consumed without prior treatment. Land use activities may have polluted the water in some areas.(1) At the commencement of this Plan there are no holders of native title rights and therefore the water requirements for native title rights are estimated to be a total of 0 megalitres per year.(2) This Plan recognises that the exercise of native title rights may increase during the term of this Plan.Note.
Increase in use of native title rights may occur as a result of the granting of native title rights under the Commonwealth’s Native Titles Act 1993.(3) The water supply system shall be managed so that it would be capable of maintaining supply to those exercising native title rights through a repeat of the worst period of low inflows to this water source represented in flow information held by the Department of Land and Water Conservation.(4) To achieve subclause (3) sufficient volumes of water must be set aside from assured inflows into this water source or in reserves held in Burrinjuck Dam water storage, Blowering Dam storage or other water storage.
Part 5 Bulk access regime
20 Bulk access regime
(1) This Part is made in accordance with section 20 (1) (d) of the Act.(2) This Plan establishes a bulk access regime for the extraction of water under access licences in this water source having regard to:(a) the environmental water provisions established under Part 3 of this Plan,(b) the requirements for basic landholder rights identified under Part 4 of this Plan, and(c) the requirements for water for extraction under access licences identified under Part 6 of this Plan.(3) The bulk access regime established under subclause (2):(a) establishes rules according to which access licences are granted as provided for in Part 7 of this Plan,(b) recognises and is consistent with the limits to the availability of water as provided for in Part 8 of this Plan,(c) establishes rules according to which available water determinations are to be made as provided for in Part 8 of this Plan,(d) recognises the effect of climatic variability on the availability of water as provided for in Part 8 of this Plan,(e) establishes rules with respect to the priorities according to which access licences are to be adjusted as a consequence of any reduction of the availability of water as provided for in Part 8 of this Plan, and(f) establishes rules according to which access licences are managed as provide for in Part 9 of this Plan.
Part 6 Requirements for water under access licences
21 Requirements for water under access licences
This Part is made in accordance with section 20 (1) (c) of the Act.Note.
The following clauses in this Part represent the total volumes or unit shares specified in the share components of access licences in this water source. The actual volume of water available at any time will depend on climate, access licence priority and the rules in this Plan.
22 Share component for domestic and stock access licences
It is estimated that at the time of commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, the volume of domestic and stock access licences authorised to extract water from this water source will total approximately 35,572 megalitres per year.
23 Share component for local water utility access licences
It is estimated that at the time of commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, the volume of local water utility access licences authorised to extract water from this water source will total approximately 23,403 megalitres per year.
24 Share component for regulated river (high security) access licences
It is estimated that at the time of commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, the volume of regulated river (high security) access licences authorised to extract water from this water source will total approximately 298,021 unit shares.
25 Share component for regulated river (general security) access licences
It is estimated that at the time of commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, the volume of regulated river (general security) access licences authorised to extract water from this water source will total approximately 2,043,432 unit shares.
26 Share component for Murrumbidgee Irrigation (conveyance) access licence
At the time of commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, the share component of the Murrumbidgee Irrigation (conveyance) access licence will be 243,000 unit shares.Note.
This licence volume and the associated available water determinations in clause 40 reflects the increase in conveyance losses that Murrumbidgee Irrigation experience as regulated river (general security) access licence allocations increase.
27 Share component for Coleambally Irrigation (conveyance) access licence
At the time of commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, the share component of the Coleambally Irrigation (conveyance) access licence will be 130,000 unit shares.Note.
This licence volume and the associated available water determinations in clause 41 reflects the increase in conveyance losses that Coleambally Irrigation Corporation Limited experience as regulated river (general security) access licence allocations increase.
28 Share component for supplementary water access licences
It is estimated that at the time of commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, the volume of supplementary water access licences authorised to extract water from this water source will total approximately 220,000 unit shares.
28A Share component for supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences
It is estimated that at the time of commencement of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map, the volume of supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences authorised to extract water from this water source will total approximately 747,000 unit shares.
29 Changes to total share component
This Plan recognises that total requirements for extraction under access licences in each access licence category may change during the term of this Plan as a result of:(a) the granting, surrender, cancellation or non renewal of access licences, or(b) variations to local water utility access licences arising from section 66 of the Act.
Part 7 Rules for granting access licences
30 Rules for granting access licences
(1) This Part is made in accordance with section 20 (2) (b) and 63 of the Act, having regard to the limits to water availability in this water source and the need to protect its ecological health.(2) Access licences may be granted in this water source subject to any embargo on the making of applications for access licences made under Chapter 3 Part 2 Division 7 of the Act.(3) The Minister should declare and embargo on the making of applications for access licences in this water source, other than for access licences of the following kinds:(a) local water utility access licences,Note.
Pursuant to sections 66 (3) and 66 (4) of the Act, the Minister may also vary a local water utility’s share component at 5 year intervals, or on application of the local water utility where there is rapid growth in population.(b) domestic and stock (domestic only) access licences,(c) regulated river (high security) (Aboriginal cultural) access licences, subject to the sum of regulated river (high security) (Aboriginal cultural) access licence share components not exceeding 2,150 megalitres per year,(d) specific purpose access licences for which applications are provided for under the regulations in accordance with section 61 (1) (a) of the Act, or(e) an access licence which will receive water allocations that reflect the volume of water saved as a result of works or other actions taken under the Snowy Water Inquiry Outcomes Implementation Deed.(4) In applying for a new access licence, the applicant must establish the purpose and circumstance relating to that access licence, and that the share or extraction component sought will be the minimum required to meet that purpose and circumstance.(5) Subclause (4) does not apply to an application for a new access licence arising from:(a) section 61 (1) (c), of the Act, where the right has been acquired by auction, tender or other open market process, or(b) an access licence dealing.
Part 8 Limits to the availability of water
Division 1 Long-term average annual extraction limit
31 Limits to the availability of water
(1) This Division is made in accordance with sections 20 (2) (a) of the Act.(2) For the purposes of this Part, all extractions under:(a) supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences,(b) basic landholder rights in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map, andwill be known as Lowbidgee extractions.(c) floodplain harvesting access licences issued for floodplain harvesting activities in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map,(3) For the purposes of this Part, all extractions from this water source, excluding Lowbidgee extractions, will be known as Murrumbidgee extractions.
32 Volume of the long-term average annual extraction limit for Murrumbidgee extractions
(1) This Plan establishes a long-term average annual extraction limit for Murrumbidgee extractions in this water source, which is the lesser of:(a) the long-term average annual extractions from this water source, excluding Lowbidgee extractions, that would occur with the water storages, access licence share components and water use development that existed in 1999/2000, and the water management rules defined in this Plan, or(b) the long-term average annual extractions, excluding Lowbidgee extractions, from this water source that would occur under the baseline conditions used for assessment of Cap under Schedule F of the Murray-Darling Basin Agreement.Note.
An assessment of the long-term average annual extractions that would result under the conditions specified under subclause (1) (a) has been made using the Murrumbidgee Integrated Quantity Quality Model scenario run number ‘50 EWA1 plus TT’. This indicates that at the commencement of this Plan a long-term average annual extraction volume of 1,925,000 megalitres would result.Note.
An assessment of the long-term average annual extractions that would result under the baseline conditions in subclause (1) (b) has been made using the Murrumbidgee Integrated Quantity Quality Model Cap scenario run number ‘721capm4’. This indicates a long-term average annual extraction volume of 1,980,000 megalitres would result.Note.
The long-term average annual extraction limit recognises the effect of climatic variability on the availability of water, in accordance with section 20 (2) (c) of the Act, as historic climate and river flow information is used in its determination.(2) The values referred to in subclauses (1) (a) and (1) (b) shall be adjusted for any access licence dealing under section 71R or 71U of the Act.
(3) If an access licence is cancelled as part of an arrangement to provide additional water to the Snowy River under the Snowy Water Inquiry Outcomes Implementation Deed the values referred to in subclauses (1) (a) and (1) (b) shall be reduced by a volume which appropriately reflects the licence share of water made available in this water source.(4) For the purposes of establishing the long-term average annual extraction limit specified in subclause (1) and auditing compliance with it, the following will be included:(a) all water extractions by all categories of access licences in accordance with the rules used for accounting of Cap diversions for Schedule E of the Murray-Darling Basin Agreement,(b) domestic and stock rights and native title rights extractions,(c) floodplain harvesting diversions determined to be taken for use in conjunction with extractions from this water source, andexcluding Lowbidgee extractions.(d) assignment of water allocations from the water allocation accounts of access licences in this water source to the water allocation accounts of access licences in other water sources,(5) For the purposes of establishing the long-term average annual extraction limit specified in subclause (1) and auditing compliance with it, the following will not be included:(a) minimum daily flows made in accordance with clause 64 of this Plan,(b) use of water pursuant to the planned environmental water rules under clauses 14 and 15 of this Plan, and(c) Lowbidgee extractions.(6) For the purposes of establishing the long-term average annual extraction limit specified in subclause (1) and auditing compliance with it, the assessed volume of extractions will be reduced by the volume of water allocations being assigned from the water allocation accounts of access licences in other water sources to the water allocation accounts of access licences in this water source.Note.
Under section 8F of the Act the long-term average annual extraction limit is taken to be varied by the amount of any change to the amount of water committed as licensed environmental water. Water committed as licensed environmental water is not to be accounted for as extraction against the long-term average annual extraction limit. The variation in the long-term average annual extraction limit is to be determined in accordance with a methodology approved by the Minister and published in the Gazette.(7) The volume of reduction in relation to subclause (6) shall be that which is representative of:(a) practices as they existed in 1999/2000 in the case of an assessment under clause 33 (2) of the long-term average annual extraction volume resulting from subclause (1) (a),(b) baseline conditions used for assessment of Cap under Schedule F of the Murray Darling Basin Agreement in the case of an assessment under clause 33 (2) of the long-term average annual extraction volume resulting from subclause 1 (b), and(c) current day practices in the case of an assessment under clause 33 (3).
32A Volume of the long-term average annual extraction limit for Lowbidgee extractions
(1) This clause establishes a long-term average annual extraction limit for Lowbidgee extractions.(2) Subject to any variation under subclause (3), the long-term average annual extraction limit for Lowbidgee extractions in this water source is the long-term average annual extractions, excluding Murrumbidgee extractions, from this water source that would occur under Cap baseline conditions as agreed under the Murray-Darling Basin Agreement in Schedule 1 of the Water Act 2007 (of the Commonwealth).Note.
An assessment of the long-term average annual extraction that would result from the Cap baseline conditions specified in subclause (2) has been made using the Murrumbidgee Cap IQQM computer model with system file capppe20.iqq. This indicates a long-term average annual extraction volume of 296,000 ML at the commencement of this Plan.(3) Following the surrender under section 77 of the Act and then the cancellation under section 77A (6) of the Act of an access licence used to supply water to the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map, the Minister may vary the respective long-term average annual extraction limit.Note.
Under section 8F of the Act the long-term average annual extraction limit is taken to be varied by the amount of any change to the amount of water committed as licensed environmental water. Water committed as licensed environmental water is not to be accounted for as extraction. The variation in the long-term average annual extraction limit is to be determined in accordance with a methodology approved by the Minister and published in the Gazette.
33 Assessment of the long-term average annual extraction limit and current level of long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions
(1) Assessment of the long-term average annual extraction limit established in clause 32 and the current level of long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions shall be carried out after the end of each water year, using the hydrologic computer model that, at the time, is approved by the Minister for assessing expected long-term Murrumbidgee extractions.(2) To assess the long-term average annual extraction limit established in clause 32, the model referred to in subclause (1) shall be set to represent as closely as possible the development and management conditions referred to in clause 32 (1) (a) and (b).(3) To assess the current level of long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions, the model referred to in subclause (1) shall be set to represent as closely as possible all water use development, supply system management and other factors affecting the quantity of long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions at the time of assessment.
34 Compliance with the long-term average annual extraction limit for Murrumbidgee extractions
(1) The level of long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions may not be permitted to exceed the long-term average annual extraction limit specified in clause 32 (1).(2) Pursuant to subclause (1), if the volume specified in clause 32 (1) (a) is less than the volume specified in clause 32 (1) (b), the maximum available water determination in any water year for supplementary water access licences and, if necessary, the maximum sum of available water determinations for regulated river (general security) access licences shall, be reduced if it has been assessed that the current long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions exceed the long-term average annual extraction limit specified in clause 32 (1) by 3%, or half the difference between the volume specified in clause 32 (1) (a) and the volume specified in clause 32 (1) (b).(3) Pursuant to subclause (1), if the volume specified in clause 32 (1) (a) is not less than the volume specified in clause 32 (1) (b), the maximum available water determination in any water year for supplementary water access licences and, if necessary, the maximum sum of available water determinations for regulated river (general security) access licences, shall be reduced if it has been assessed that the current long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions exceeds the volume specified in clause 32 (1) (b).(4) The degree of reduction under subclauses (2) or (3) shall be to the degree that is assessed as necessary to return Murrumbidgee extractions to the levels defined by the long-term average annual extraction limit established in clause 32.(5) The first reduction method used under subclause (2) or (3) shall be to reduce the maximum available water determination that may be made for supplementary water access licences for any water year.(6) Once no extractions by supplementary water access licences are allowed as a result of subclause (5) then the maximum sum of available water determinations in any water year that may be made for regulated river (general security) access licences, is to be reduced.Note.
Subclauses (5) and (6) do not relate to supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences as extraction under these licences is accounted for as Lowbidgee extractions. Compliance with average annual extraction limit for Lowbidgee extractions are dealt with in clauses 34A–34C.(7) If action has been taken under subclause (2) or (3) and a subsequent assessment under clause 33 indicates that the current level of long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions is below the long-term average annual extraction limit established in clause 32 by more than 3%, then previous reductions under subclause (2) or (3) may be reversed to the degree that it is assessed necessary to return long-term average annual Murrumbidgee extractions to the long-term average annual extraction limit.(8) Any reversal of previous reductions under subclause (7) shall:(a) be applied to higher priority categories of licence as set out in section 58 of the Act, first, and(b) not exceed the previous reductions made under subclause (2).(9) The assessment of the degree of reduction required under subclause (2) or (3) or degree of reversal under subclause (7) shall be made using the same computer model used to carry out assessments under clause 33.
34A Calculation of the long-term average annual extraction limit and current levels of annual Lowbidgee extractions
(1) After each water year following the water year in which Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act commenced in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map, the long-term average annual extraction limit as defined in clause 32A may be reassessed to incorporate new information.(2) The total volume of water taken during that water year by Lowbidgee extractions must be calculated.(3) The long-term average annual extraction limit and current levels of long-term average annual extraction will be calculated after each water year following the water year in which Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act commenced in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map using the hydrologic computer model that, at the time, is approved by the Minister for assessing long-term extraction from this water source.(4) The calculation of the long-term average annual extraction limit, as defined in clause 32A, and current levels of long-term average annual extraction will comprise all Lowbidgee extractions.Note.
The reassessment of the long-term average annual extraction limit in subclause (1) assists in meeting the Plan objective of adaptive management of this water source.
34B Assessment of average annual extraction against the long-term annual extraction limit for Lowbidgee extractions
(1) Assessment of the long-term average annual extraction limit established in clause 32A and the current level of long-term average annual Lowbidgee extraction shall be carried out by the Minister after the end of each water year following the water year in which Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act commenced in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map, using the hydrologic computer model that, at the time, is approved by the Minister for assessing expected long-term Lowbidgee extractions.(2) To assess the long-term average annual extraction limit established in clause 32A, the model referred to in subclause (1) shall be set to represent as closely as possible the development and management conditions referred to in clause 32A (2).(3) To assess the current level of long-term average annual Lowbidgee extraction, the model referred to in subclause (1) shall be set to represent as closely as possible all water use development, supply system management and other factors affecting the quantity of long-term average annual Lowbidgee extractions at the time of assessment.
34C Compliance with the long-term average annual extraction limit for Lowbidgee extractions
(1) Compliance with the long-term average annual extraction limit for Lowbidgee extractions established for this water source is to be managed in accordance with this clause.(2) At the commencement of each water year after the water year in which Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act commenced in the area marked as Lowbidgee on the Plan Map, if in the Minister’s opinion the assessment under clause 34B demonstrates that current modelled long-term average annual Lowbidgee extractions have exceeded the long-term average annual extraction limit as defined in clause 32A by 3% or more, then the available water determination for supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences will be reduced for the following water year in accordance with subclause (3).(3) The reduction under subclause (2) is to be of an amount that, in the Minister’s opinion, is necessary to return long-term average annual Lowbidgee extractions in the water source to the long-term average annual extraction limit established in clause 32A.

Section 341 of the Act makes it unlawful to take a volume of water under an access licence that exceeds the volume of water allocation which at the time of water extraction is credited to the access licence.(1) The water allocation taken under a domestic and stock access licence, local water utility access licence, regulated river (high security) access licence, regulated river (general security) access licence, Murrumbidgee Irrigation (conveyance) access licence and Coleambally Irrigation (conveyance) access licence will be assessed as:(a) the volume of water extracted by the approved works nominated by the access licence, or(b) the greater of:(i) the volume of water extracted by the approved works nominated by the access licence, orwhere the Minister has applied such a discretionary condition to the access licence.(ii) the volume of water ordered for extraction by the approved works nominated by the access licence,(2) The Minister should only apply a discretionary condition in relation to subclause (1) (b) where this has been provided for in an approved compliance management strategy.Note.
It is intended that the discretionary condition referred to above should only be applied where water orders have been exceeding the volume of water being taken under an access licence and this cannot be explained by rainfall or other unavoidable factors.(3) The water allocation taken from the water allocation accounts of supplementary water access licences and supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences will be the volume of water extracted in accordance with announcements and access licence conditions by the approved works nominated by the access licences.
47 Accounting of assigned water allocations and return flows
(1) Water allocations assigned from a water allocation account under Part 2 Division 4 of the Act will be debited from that water allocation account and water allocations assigned to a water allocation account under Part 2 Division 4 of the Act will be credited to that water allocation account.(2) Water allocations may also be re-credited to access licence water allocation accounts under section 76 of the Act, in accordance with water return flow rules established under section 75 of the Act.
48 Account forfeits/limits/carryover
(1) Water allocations remaining in the water allocation accounts of domestic and stock access licences, local water utility access licences, regulated river (high security) access licences, supplementary water access licences and supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences cannot be carried over from one water year to the next.(2) The following rules shall apply to the management of water allocations in the water allocation accounts of regulated river (general security) access licences:(a) the maximum volume of water allocation that may be carried over in the water allocation account from one water year to the next shall be equal to 0.3 megalitres multiplied by the number of unit shares specified in the share component,(b) the maximum volume that may be credited to an account in any water year from available water determinations shall be equivalent to the maximum sum of available water determinations permitted under clause 39 (4) multiplied by the number of unit shares specified in the share component, minus the volume of water that was carried over in the account from the previous water year, and(c) when the sum of available water determinations to regulated river (general security) access licenses is equivalent to or less than 0.7 megalitres per unit share, and access to water by supplementary water access licences is permitted under clause 51 then water extracted by regulated river (general security) access licences will not be debited against their water allocation account in accordance with clause 39 (6).(3) The following rules shall apply to the management of water allocations in the water allocation accounts of Murrumbidgee Irrigation (conveyance) access licences and Coleambally Irrigation (conveyance) access licences:(a) the maximum volume of water allocation that may be carried over in the water allocation account from one water year to the next shall be equal to 0.3 megalitres multiplied by the number of unit shares specified in the share component, and(b) the maximum volume that may be credited to an account in any water year from available water determinations shall be the maximum total volume of available water determination permitted under clause 40, in relation to Murrumbidgee Irrigation (conveyance) access licences and clause 41, in relation to Coleambally Irrigation (conveyance) access licences, minus the volume of water that was carried over in the account from the previous water year.(4) The Minister may, under section 45 (1) (b) of the Act and by notice published in the Gazette, increase the maximum carryover percentage specified in subclause (2) (a) and (3) up to a maximum of 0.5 megalitres per unit share and or apply different maximum carryover figures for regulated river (general security) access licence water accounts based on different zones within this water source, following the completion of a review of the possible impact associated with such changes.(5) The review under subclause (4) should be undertaken within the first three years of this Plan.
Division 2 Extraction conditions
49 General priority of extractions
Where extraction components of an access licence do not specify the rate as a share of supply capacity or a volume per unit of time, then whenever supply capability is insufficient to satisfy all orders for water in any section of this water source at any time then:(a) water will be supplied to domestic and stock access licences, local water utility access licences and regulated river (high security) access licences that have placed orders for water, and(b) then any remaining supply capability will be shared between regulated river (general security) access licences that have placed an order for water, in proportion to the share components specified on the access licence.
50 Numerical specification of extraction components
(1) At any time during the term of this Plan, the Minister may, in accordance with the mandatory conditions on licences, amend the extraction components of access licences in this water source, or in any section of this water source.(2) Action under subclause (1) should be undertaken as follows:(a) the specified rate in the extraction component of each access licence should be a volume per unit of time or a share of supply capability,(b) the specified rate in the extraction component of each domestic and stock, local water utility and regulated river (high security) access licence should be sufficient to satisfy the maximum daily water needs, and(c) after satisfying subclause (2) (b) the remaining supply capability should be distributed among regulated river (general security) access licences in proportion to the share component of each access licence.(3) When action under subclause (1) is undertaken the Minister may also, in accordance with mandatory conditions on access licences, amend the extraction components of access licences in other sections of this water source to re-specify their extraction components to exclude extractions in sections of this water source affected by action under subclause (1).
51 Extraction of water under supplementary water access licences and supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences
(1) The taking of water under supplementary water access licences and supplementary water (Lowbidgee) access licences should only be permitted in accordance with announcements made by the Minister.Note.
Supplementary water may only be taken in accordance with an order in force under section 70 of the Act that authorises the taking of water pursuant to supplementary water access licences. It is an offence under section 60A of the Water Management Act 2000 for a person to take supplementary water otherwise than in accordance with the terms of an order in force under section 70.(2) The maximum volume that may be taken under supplementary water access licences during each period of time to which an announcement applies may be expressed as a number of megalitres per unit share.Note.
At the gazettal of this Plan, this was not the practice for the Murrumbidgee Regulated River Water Source but may need to occur at some stage during the term of this Plan.

Appendix 4 Performance indicators
Performance indicators for the Murrumbidgee Regulated River Water Sharing Plan | |||
Performance indicator | Related objective | Assessed by: | Commentary |
Change in low flows. | 10 (a) | • Number of days per water year where flow is below natural 95th and 80th percentiles. • Average and maximum number of days per water year of continuous periods of flow which is below natural 95th and 80th percentiles. • Measurement at end of system and specified key sampling sites. | • River Flow Objectives (RFOs) 1 and 6. • Analysis would need to incorporate reference to seasonal indicators. • Long-term modelling will reflect the influence of climate on flows. • Appropriate data relating to flow distribution, such as summer/winter cropping balance, agronomical practices, on farm storage development, management and operation of environmental releases etc. • Baseline audit should be the modelled water sharing plan scenario (rather than natural flows). |
Change in moderate to high flows. | 10 (a) | • Number of days per water year where flow is above natural 30th 15th and 5th percentiles. • Average and maximum number of days per water year of continuous periods of flow which is above natural 30th, 15th and 5th percentiles. • Measurement at end of system and other key sampling sites in the water source. | • RFO 3. |
Change in water quality in this water source. | 10 (a) | • Assessment and statistical analysis of key water quality parameters, and relationship to flow. | • Plan rules will contribute to a long-term change in water quality by affecting flow regimes and flow management to address issues such as algal management. • Note that there are many non-water sharing plan related factors that affect water quality (eg land-based activities and thermal pollution). |
Change in ecological condition of this water source and dependent ecosystems. | 10 (a) | • Monitoring of ecological response to changed flow regimes, by integrated monitoring of environmental flows (IMEF). Each water source will have specific hypotheses from the set developed under the IMEF model. • Other relevant studies as may be undertaken in specific water sources. | • IMEF tests a number of hypotheses to indicate how elements of river ecology respond to different aspects of the flow regime (including environmental flow regimes, irrigation flows, and floods and wetland connectivity). |
Change in economic benefits derived from water extraction and use. | 10 (e) | • Change in regional gross margins versus annual total extractions based on year 1 benchmarks (as represented in IQQM). • Movement of water to higher value crops as measured by increases in area and/or water extracted by these enterprises versus lower value uses. • Change in unit price of water transferred. • Annual total volume of access licence transferred in each water year. | • Note that there are many factors affecting economic status of a region, such as commodity prices, other sources of water (eg groundwater). • The performance indicator is intended to isolate as much as possible the effects of water availability and price on the gross margin returns at a regional level. • Assessment undertaken as part of plan performance monitoring will make assumptions to attempt to identify the impact of the plan provisions. |
Extent to which basic landholder rights requirements have been met | 10 (d) | • Basic rights allowances made according to plan provisions/implementation program requirements. • Flows adequate to meet basic rights requirements (taking into consideration allowances for delivery). | • Basic rights usage figures in water sharing plans are estimated volumes (not actual use). • Basic rights represents a very small proportion of water extraction in regulated systems. |
Extent to which local water utility requirements have been met. | 10 (f) | • Percentage of years that reserves were adequate to satisfy urban water requirements. | |
Extent to which native title rights have been met. | 10 (j) | • Native title rights allowances made according to plan provisions and implementation program requirements. | |
Extent of recognition of spiritual, social and customary values of water to Aboriginal people. | 10 (j) | • Assessment of amount and type of information collected to identify the range of values of water to Aboriginal people. | • The collection of information on the values associated with water is considered the first step in addressing the objects of the Act. It would be expected that at the end of five years there should be relevant information collected for each water source, as a minimum requirement. |
