sec.43 Daily volumetric limit

The daily volumetric limit for the water allocation is— for an existing authorisation that states the volume of water that may be taken in a day—the stated volume; or for another existing authorisation—the daily volumetric limit decided by the chief executive having regard to— the type of authorisation; and an estimate or measurement of the rate at which water can be taken under the authorisation. However, for subsection (1) (b) , if the holder of the existing authorisation satisfies the chief executive that the water taking capacity of an existing pump is different from the daily volumetric limit decided under the subsection, the daily volumetric limit is the volume decided by the chief executive having regard to the following— the conditions under which the water may be taken under the authorisation; the water taking capacity of the existing pump under normal operating conditions; the irrigation or water distribution system related to the existing pump during the period of not more than 10 years immediately before 27 November 2009; the efficiency of the water use associated with the irrigation or water distribution system mentioned in paragraph (c) . In this section— existing pump , in relation to an existing authorisation, means a pump used under— the existing authorisation; or a development permit for the existing authorisation.
