### sec.101 Special regulation-making power to support non-tidal boundary (watercourse) location
Regulations made under this Act may include a regulation supporting the application of the provisions of this division relating to non-tidal boundaries (watercourse).
Without limiting subsection (1) , a regulation may, by words and diagrams—
indicate how the provisions of this division must be applied in varying environments and in watercourses, or sections of watercourses, of varying profiles; or
give examples of the occurrence of depositional features and scour marks and of how they may locate non-tidal boundaries (watercourse); or
explain how a bench, bar, in-stream island or sand or reed bank in a watercourse may typically be recognised; or
explain how an anabranch may be recognised.
A regulation under this section is not invalid only because it supplements the provisions of this Act by providing greater certainty than would otherwise be the case in relation to the location at law of non-tidal boundaries (watercourse) in particular circumstances or types of circumstances.
