Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

These regulations formally declare wells in two defined areas — the Hundred of Willunga and the Upper Willunga Catchment Area — to be "proclaimed" or "prescribed" wells under the Water Resources Act. That change makes those wells subject to the Act’s regulatory regime, bringing landowners and water users in those areas under administrative oversight and any obligations that flow from the Act. The instrument also sets the start and end dates for the Upper Willunga establishment and prescribed periods and preserves operation of section 7(5) of the Act.
