sec.56 Daily volumetric limits

The daily volumetric limit for a water allocation to take unsupplemented water is— for an authorisation that states the daily volumetric limit—the stated volume; and for an authorisation that does not state a volume but for which a related development permit— states a pump size mentioned in schedule 7 , column 1—the daily volumetric limit stated in schedule 7 , column 3, for the pump size; or states a pump size other than a pump size mentioned in schedule 7 , column 1—the daily volumetric limit decided by the chief executive having regard to the daily volumetric limits stated for similar pump sizes in schedule 7 , column 3; and for another 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 authorisation holder satisfies the chief executive that the water taking capacity of the 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 pump to which the development permit relates (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 the plan notification day; the efficiency of the system mentioned in paragraph (c) . The chief executive must ensure the daily volumetric limit for a water allocation is not more than the total volume that could be taken in a day at the maximum rate decided, for the water allocation, under section 55 . (sec.56-ssec.1) The daily volumetric limit for a water allocation to take unsupplemented water is— for an authorisation that states the daily volumetric limit—the stated volume; and for an authorisation that does not state a volume but for which a related development permit— states a pump size mentioned in schedule 7 , column 1—the daily volumetric limit stated in schedule 7 , column 3, for the pump size; or states a pump size other than a pump size mentioned in schedule 7 , column 1—the daily volumetric limit decided by the chief executive having regard to the daily volumetric limits stated for similar pump sizes in schedule 7 , column 3; and for another 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. (sec.56-ssec.2) However, for subsection (1) (b) , if the authorisation holder satisfies the chief executive that the water taking capacity of the 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 pump to which the development permit relates (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 the plan notification day; the efficiency of the system mentioned in paragraph (c) . (sec.56-ssec.3) The chief executive must ensure the daily volumetric limit for a water allocation is not more than the total volume that could be taken in a day at the maximum rate decided, for the water allocation, under section 55 .
