sec.46 Nominal volume for water allocation
The nominal volume for a water allocation to take supplemented water is— if the authorisation states an annual volume—the stated volume; or if the authorisation is an interim water allocation to take supplemented water in the Central Lockyer Valley water supply scheme that states an area that may be irrigated—the volume decided by the chief executive having regard to the volume of water required to efficiently irrigate the area, but not more than the volume, expressed in megalitres, calculated by multiplying the area, in hectares, by 3.4.
