Water Sharing Plan for Macquarie/Wambuul

What’s this about?

Public exhibition of the draft Water Sharing Plan for the Macquarie/Wambuul Bogan Unregulated River Water Source 2025 will run from Monday 4 November to Friday 10 January 2025. 

The water sharing plan establishes rules for water management including the limit of the total volume of water that can be extracted from the water sources in the Macquarie/Wambuul Bogan Unregulated Water Sources areas.

Water sharing plans are subject to review every 10 years under the Water Management Act 2000. The current water sharing plan for the Macquarie/Wambuul Bogan Unregulated River Water Source 2012 will expire on 30 June 2025.

The public exhibition period provides opportunities for water users, community members and community members to learn more about proposed changes in the draft plan, and to make submissions and comment on the draft. Feedback and issues raised during the public exhibition phase will be considered when finalising the plan.

The finalised replacement plan is proposed to commence on or before 1 July 2025.
