Description: Water sharing plans (WSP) are established under the Water Management Act 2000 (the Act) and are prepared for all water sources in NSW. These plans are also a component of Water Resources Plans prepared as a requirement of the Basin Plan 2012, covering water sources in the Murray–Darling Basin.WSP’s are reviewed and replaced periodically (usually every ten years) to ensure the long-term health of ecosystems and communities in specific WSP areas. The review of a WSP includes a formal evaluation to assess appropriateness, efficiency of implementation, effectiveness in meeting plan objectives, and alignment with the Act's requirements.The evaluation follows a step-by-step process which includes a model scenario to represent the effects of Planned Environmental Water (PEW) rules in the WSP.This high-level (“No PEW”) scenario enables a comparison of modelled flows at key locations within the river system between scenarios WITH and WITHOUT plan environmental rules to inform an assessment of the effectiveness of the PEW rules in the WSP.For information about this feature class please see WATER MODELLING-ModelledData-NoPEW page in SEED website.
