NSW Office of Water SW licences - Gloucester PAE v2 21022014

Brief description

## **Abstract**

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement.



The aim of this dataset was to be able to map each surface water works with the volumetric entitlement without double counting the volume and to aggregate/ disaggregate the data depending on the final use.



This has been clipped to the Gloucester PAE.

## **Dataset History**

1.\tJoe Bell (GA) has clipped the surface water licences to the Gloucester PAE. This clip contains the works associated with the sharecomponent/ entitlement. This can be a many to many relationship. . A work is a surface water extraction point.

SW_licences_GloucesterPAE_Clip.dbf

2.\tShare component/ entitlement information was stored in the SW_Gloucester_COMBINED_v4.csv worksheet

3.\tTotal volume of share component/ entitlement is 10,786ML

4.\tThe works and share/component information was joined using Access, linking the CWlicence to the WAorCA_link. This links the volumetric entitlement to the works location.

5.\tThis link also created share components that had a 0 entitlement which are licences that have been converted to unbundled licences in the new Water Act

6.\tBy filtering out the 0 entitlement, the number of works linked to a share/component or entitlement with a specified volume was 212 with a total of 10,786ML. Worksheet FilteredIndividualSWLicences

7.\tWhere there was more than one works per licence, an additional column was add COUNT_CWLICENSE. This shows where the share component/ entitlement is double counted as it is matched to each work with the full allocation.

8.\tAn additional column was added SHARE_PER_WORKS which divides the share component/ entitlement by the number of works to give an allocation per works.

9.\tThe SHARE_PER_WORKS column allows you to plot the works with the share component in ArcGIS without double counting the allocation.

10. A glossary of terms used ini the water licensing is included here: http://registers.water.nsw.gov.au/wma/Glossary.jsp

11.\tAn additional worksheet was added to aggregate the data into Water Sources and Management Zones. The Water Sources and Management Zones were provided by NSW Office of Water

CombinedWSP_WSOURCES_31July2013.gdb\\Geographic_GDA94\\WSP_COMBINED_31July2013

12.\tThe Avon River does not have management zones. Therefore data can only be viewed for the water source.

13.\tAll other works can be aggregated to the Water Source, or the management zone depending on how you want to aggregate or disaggregate the data.
