sec.25 Assessing impact of decisions about groundwater
The Callide Valley groundwater computer program’s simulation for the simulation period is used to assess consistency with the environmental flow objectives and the water allocation security objectives for groundwater. If it is not practicable to use the Callide Valley groundwater computer program, another assessment method approved by the chief executive may be used. The chief executive may approve an assessment method for subsection (2) only if the chief executive is satisfied the method will assess consistency with the objectives at least as accurately as the Callide Valley groundwater computer program. In this section— Callide Valley groundwater computer program means the department’s computer program and associated data files, and statistical and data processing programs, that simulate groundwater levels, groundwater demand, recharge and groundwater flows in parts of the Callide Groundwater Unit 1. s 25 amd 2021 SL No. 71 ss 12 , 49 (4) (sec.25-ssec.1) The Callide Valley groundwater computer program’s simulation for the simulation period is used to assess consistency with the environmental flow objectives and the water allocation security objectives for groundwater.
