"Water allocation plans are required for each water management system to define the amount of water to be made available for use based on ecological sustainability, and to allocate that water between competing uses. That is, the plans define the amount of water that is allowed to be diverted from river systems and groundwater aquifers, while ensuring sufficient water is maintained to meet the needs of key water dependent ecosystems" - Foreword, p. iii.
