WATER SHARING PLANS SPATIAL DATA

These datasets represent management units within in-force water sharing plans across NSW, including regulated, unregulated and groundwater plans (or a combination of these). The data includes both water sources and management zones (where applicable) derived from plans gazetted under the NSW Water Management Act 2000. The boundaries of these water sources and management zones are used to define areas in which specific management rules apply. As such, this data may be used to understand which water sharing plan rules apply to a specific location. The plans are in place for 10 years but may be amended within this time. Any updates to water source or management zone boundaries as a result of a plan being amended during, or replaced following its 10 year term will be made available at that time.

PLEASE NOTE: In the case of any discrepancy between this digital dataset and the published Water Sharing Plan (accessible on the www.legislation.nsw.gov.au site) the instrument as made by the Minister remains the authoritative source and should be used to both interpret the intent of the Plan and in subsequent decision making. Best endeavours have been made in collating relevant Water Sharing Plan boundary and attribution contained in this dataset. However, no warranty is provided as to the accuracy or currency of this representation.
