Schedule 2 Diagram and map references relating to streams
(Clause 3 (1), definition of “minor stream”)
Part 1 Schematic diagram of stream order of a watercourse
The method of determining the stream order of a watercourse shown on a topographic map is the Strahler system as shown below. The Strahler system is applied to the watercourses shown on the topographic maps as listed in Part 2.
The Strahler system:
  Starting at the top of a catchment, any watercourse which has no other watercourses flowing into it is classed as a first order stream (1).
  If two first order streams join, the stream becomes a second order stream (2).
  If a second order stream is joined by a first order stream, it remains a second order stream.
  If two second order streams join they form a third order stream (3).
  A third order stream does not become a fourth order stream until it is joined by another third order stream.
Part 2 References to topographic maps with stream locations
The topographic maps referred to in this Part are issued by the Land Information Centre (formerly the Central Mapping Authority).

(3)  The Minister may in a particular case by notice in writing to a landholder of eligible land extend the period of the exemption conferred by subclause (1) in its application to the landholder if the Minister is satisfied that the extension is necessary to enable the Minister to establish the landholder’s confirmed history of water usage.
42   Replacement access licences arising from confirmed history of water usage
(1)  A landholder of eligible land in respect of which there is a confirmed history of water usage is taken to hold an access licence (a replacement access licence), and such an access licence is taken to have arisen, on the following terms and conditions:
(a)  terms identifying:
(i)  the category or subcategory of the licence, as determined by clause 43 of this Schedule, and
(ii)  the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 44 or 45 of this Schedule, as the case requires,

(3)  For the purpose of establishing the confirmed history of water usage for any eligible land, the Minister may require the landholder to furnish information relevant to that purpose.
(4)  The Minister is not required to issue a notice under subclause (2) if he or she is not satisfied that a confirmed history of water usage for eligible land has been established, whether because the landholder has failed to comply with a requirement under subclause (3) or otherwise.
(5)  This Subdivision does not operate:
(a)  to create a domestic and stock access licence (or an access licence of a subcategory of a domestic and stock access licence) in relation to land if:
(i)  the land has frontage to a tidal pool water source, or
(ii)  the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 44 of this Schedule, would be zero or negative, or
(b)  to create an unregulated river access licence (or an access licence of a subcategory of an unregulated river access licence) if the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 45 of this Schedule, would be zero or negative.
Note—
Because it is an access licence, a replacement access licence can be suspended, cancelled or compulsorily acquired under Division 6 of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, and discretionary conditions can be imposed under section 66. The licence holder will need to apply for any necessary water use approvals and water supply work approvals if he or she intends to take or use water under the authority of a replacement access licence.
43   Categories of replacement access licence
A replacement access licence is to be:
(a)  to the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for domestic consumption or stock watering:
(i)  if the water has been used for both domestic consumption and stock watering, a domestic and stock access licence, or
(ii)  if the water has been used for domestic consumption only, a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, or
(iii)  if the water has been used for stock watering only, a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, and
(b)  to the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used otherwise than for domestic consumption or stock watering:
(i)  an unregulated river access licence, or
(ii)  an access licence of any subcategory of an unregulated river access licence.
44   Share component for domestic and stock access licences
The share component for a replacement access licence that is a domestic and stock access licence is to be as follows:
(a)  except as provided by paragraphs (b) and (c), 4.5 megalitres,
(b)  in the case of a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, 1 megalitre,
(c)  in the case of a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, 3.5 megalitres,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
45   Share component for unregulated river access licences
(1)  The share component for a replacement access licence that is an unregulated river access licence is to be the amount (in megalitres) equivalent to the maximum average volume of tidal pool water taken annually and used on the eligible land concerned, otherwise than for domestic consumption or stock watering, between 1999 and 2009 (inclusive).
(2)  The reference in subclause (1) to the maximum average volume of water is a reference to:
(a)  if water was taken during only one of the years between 1999 and 2009, the volume of water taken during that year, or
(b)  if water was taken during only 2 of the years between 1999 and 2009, one half of the sum of the volumes of water taken annually during those years, or
(c)  if water was taken during 3 or more of the years between 1999 and 2009, one third of the sum of the 3 largest volumes of water taken annually during those years,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water, other than an entitlement that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
(3)  To the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for purposes other than:
(a)  irrigation, or
(b)  domestic consumption, or
(c)  stock watering,
the volume of water taken in any year is to be calculated (in megalitres) on the basis of that history.
(4)  To the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for the purposes of irrigation, the volume of water taken in any year for those purposes is to be calculated (in megalitres):
(a)  in the case of water taken from the Wallis Creek Tidal Pool Water Source, the Paterson River Tidal Pool Water Source or the Hunter River Tidal Pool Water Source:
(i)  if the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates which crops specified in Table 1 were grown under irrigation on which parts of the land during that year, as the sum of the amounts obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of land on which each such crop was grown (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage) by the factor specified in that Table in relation to that crop, or
(ii)  in any other case, as the amount obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of the land on which crops specified in Table 1 were grown under irrigation during that year (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land) by the smallest factor specified in that Table in relation to those crops, and
(b)  in the case of water taken from the Manning River Tidal Pool Water Source:
(i)  if the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates which crops specified in Table 2 were grown under irrigation on which parts of the land during that year, as the sum of the amounts obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of land on which each such crop was grown (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage) by the factor specified in that Table in relation to that crop, or
(ii)  in any other case, as the amount obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of the land on which crops specified in Table 2 were grown under irrigation during that year (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land) by the smallest factor specified in that Table in relation to those crops.
(5)  Where more than one crop has been grown on the same land in the same year, the land may not be counted more than once for the purposes of subclause (4), but the higher or highest of the factors relevant to those crops is to be used.
(6)  For the purposes of this clause, a reference to a crop specified in Table 1 or 2 includes a reference to any other crop that the Minister determines to be an equivalent to that crop.

Example 1—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which 10 hectares were used for growing lucerne, 10 hectares were used for annual pasture and 10 hectares were used for vegetables (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 6 (for lucerne), 3.5 (for annual pasture) and 8 (for vegetables). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 175 megalitres (that is, 10 times 6, plus 10 times 3.5, plus 10 times 8: see subclause (4) (a) (i)).
Example 2—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which some were used for growing lucerne, some were used for annual pasture and some were used for vegetables (the specific areas not indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 6 (for lucerne), 3.5 (for annual pasture) and 8 (for vegetables). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 105 megalitres (that is, 30 times 3.5: see subclause (4) (a) (ii)).
Example 3—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which all 30 were used for growing summer cereals (in summer) and all 30 were used for growing winter cereals (in winter). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 4 (for summer cereals) and 3 (for winter cereals). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 120 megalitres (that is, 30 times 4: see subclauses (4) (a) (i) and (5)).
46   Conversion of share components of access licence
Clause 7 of Schedule 10 to the Act applies to and in respect of a replacement access licence in the same way as it applies to and in respect of an access licence arising under that Schedule.
Note—
This clause enables the share component of an access licence under this Subdivision to be converted from a specified quantity of water to any other manner (such as a unit share) in which a share component may be expressed under section 56 of the Act.

(3)  The Minister may in a particular case by notice in writing to a landholder of eligible land extend the period of the exemption conferred by subclause (1) in its application to the landholder if the Minister is satisfied that the extension is necessary to enable the Minister to establish the landholder’s confirmed history of water usage.
55   Replacement access licences arising from confirmed history of water usage
(1)  A landholder of eligible land in respect of which there is a confirmed history of water usage is taken to hold an access licence (a replacement access licence), and such an access licence is taken to have arisen, on the following terms and conditions:
(a)  terms identifying:
(i)  the category or subcategory of the licence, as determined by clause 56 of this Schedule, and
(ii)  the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 57 or 58 of this Schedule, as the case requires,
(b)  the mandatory conditions referable to an access licence of the category or subcategory referred to in paragraph (a) (i).
(2)  A replacement access licence does not operate (and has no force or effect) until the Minister notifies the licence holder in writing of the terms and conditions of the licence referred to in subclause (1).
(3)  For the purpose of establishing the confirmed history of water usage for any eligible land, the Minister may require the landholder to furnish information relevant to that purpose.
(4)  The Minister is not required to issue a notice under subclause (2) if he or she is not satisfied that a confirmed history of water usage for eligible land has been established, whether because the landholder has failed to comply with a requirement under subclause (3) or otherwise.
(5)  This Subdivision does not operate:
(a)  to create a domestic and stock access licence (or an access licence of a subcategory of a domestic and stock access licence) in relation to land if:
(i)  the land has frontage to a tidal pool water source, or
(ii)  the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 57 of this Schedule, would be zero or negative, or
(b)  to create an unregulated river access licence (or an access licence of a subcategory of an unregulated river access licence) if the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 58 of this Schedule, would be zero or negative.
Note—
Because it is an access licence, a replacement access licence can be suspended, cancelled or compulsorily acquired under Division 6 of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, and discretionary conditions can be imposed under section 66. The licence holder will need to apply for any necessary water use approvals and water supply work approvals if he or she intends to take or use water under the authority of a replacement access licence.
56   Categories of replacement access licence
A replacement access licence is to be:
(a)  to the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for domestic consumption or stock watering:
(i)  if the water has been used for both domestic consumption and stock watering, a domestic and stock access licence, or
(ii)  if the water has been used for domestic consumption only, a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, or
(iii)  if the water has been used for stock watering only, a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, and
(b)  to the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used otherwise than for domestic consumption or stock watering:
(i)  an unregulated river access licence, or
(ii)  an access licence of any subcategory of an unregulated river access licence.
57   Share component for domestic and stock access licences
(1)  In relation to an entitlement or access licence in respect of the Tweed Estuary Water Source, the Wyrallah Area Water Source or the Coraki Area Water Source, the share component for a replacement access licence that is a domestic and stock access licence is to be as follows:
(a)  except as provided by paragraphs (b) and (c), 4 megalitres,
(b)  in the case of a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, 1 megalitre,
(c)  in the case of a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, 3 megalitres,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
(2)  In relation to an entitlement or access licence in respect of the Merimbula Lake Tributaries Water Source, Pambula Lake Tributaries Water Source, Towamba Estuary Tributaries Water Source, the Bermagui River Water Source or the Wapengo Lagoon Tributaries Water Source, the share component for a replacement access licence that is a domestic and stock access licence is to be as follows:
(a)  except as provided by paragraphs (b) and (c), 5.5 megalitres,
(b)  in the case of a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, 1 megalitre,
(c)  in the case of a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, 4.5 megalitres,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
58   Share component for unregulated river access licences
(1)  The share component for a replacement access licence that is an unregulated river access licence is to be the amount (in megalitres) equivalent to the maximum average volume of tidal pool water taken annually and used on the eligible land concerned, otherwise than for domestic consumption or stock watering, between 2000 and 2010 (inclusive).
(2)  The reference in subclause (1) to the maximum average volume of water is a reference to:
(a)  if water was taken during only one of the years between 2000 and 2010, the volume of water taken during that year, or
(b)  if water was taken during only 2 of the years between 2000 and 2010, one half of the sum of the volumes of water taken annually during those years, or
(c)  if water was taken during 3 or more of the years between 2000 and 2010, one third of the sum of the 3 largest volumes of water taken annually during those years,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water, other than an entitlement that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
(3)  To the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for purposes other than:
(a)  irrigation, or
(b)  domestic consumption, or
(c)  stock watering,
the volume of water taken in any year is to be calculated (in megalitres) on the basis of that history.
(4)  To the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for the purposes of irrigation, the volume of water taken in any year for those purposes is to be calculated (in megalitres):
(a)  in the case of water taken from the Tweed Estuary Water Source, the Wyrallah Area Water Source or the Coraki Area Water Source:
(i)  if the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates which crops specified in Table 1 to this clause were grown under irrigation on which parts of the land during that year, as the sum of the amounts obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of land on which each such crop was grown (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage) by the factor specified in that Table in relation to that crop, or
(ii)  in any other case, as the amount obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of the land on which crops specified in Table 1 to this clause were grown under irrigation during that year (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land) by the smallest factor specified in that Table in relation to those crops, and
(b)  in the case of water taken from the Merimbula Lake Tributaries Water Source, the Pambula Lake Tributaries Water Source, the Towamba Estuary Tributaries Water Source, the Bermagui River Water Source or the Wapengo Lagoon Tributaries Water Source:
(i)  if the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates which crops specified in Table 2 were grown under irrigation on which parts of the land during that year, as the sum of the amounts obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of land on which each such crop was grown (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage) by the factor specified in that Table in relation to that crop, or
(ii)  in any other case, as the amount obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of the land on which crops specified in Table 2 were grown under irrigation during that year (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land) by the smallest factor specified in that Table in relation to those crops.
(5)  Where more than one crop has been grown on the same land in the same year, the land may not be counted more than once for the purposes of subclause (4), but the higher or highest of the factors relevant to those crops is to be used.
(6)  For the purposes of this clause, a reference to a crop specified in Table 1 or 2 to this clause includes a reference to any other crop that the Minister determines to be an equivalent to that crop.

Example 1—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which 10 hectares were used for growing lucerne, 10 hectares were used for annual pasture and 10 hectares were used for vegetables (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 4.5 (for lucerne), 3 (for annual pasture) and 6 (for vegetables). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 135 megalitres (that is, 10 times 4.5, plus 10 times 3, plus 10 times 6: see subclause (4) (a) (i)).
Example 2—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which some were used for growing lucerne, some were used for annual pasture and some were used for vegetables (the specific areas not indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 4.5 (for lucerne), 3 (for annual pasture) and 6 (for vegetables). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 90 megalitres (that is, 30 times 3: see subclause (4) (a) (ii)).
Example 3—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which all 30 were used for growing summer cereals (in summer) and all 30 were used for growing winter cereals (in winter). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 2 (for summer cereals) and 2.5 (for winter cereals). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 75 megalitres (that is, 30 times 2.5: see subclauses (4) (a) (i) and (5)).
59   Conversion of share components of access licence
Clause 7 of Schedule 10 to the Act applies to and in respect of a replacement access licence in the same way as it applies to and in respect of an access licence arising under that Schedule.
Note—
This clause enables the share component of an access licence under this Subdivision to be converted from a specified quantity of water to any other manner (such as a unit share) in which a share component may be expressed under section 56 of the Act.
Subdivision 3 Security interests

61   Registration of security interests in replacement access licences
(1)  Pursuant to clause 1 of Schedule 9 to the Act, clause 19 of Schedule 10 to the Act is to be construed as if the reference in clause 19 (5) to the commencement of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Act were a reference to 17 December 2010.
(2)  Pursuant to clause 1 of Schedule 9 to the Act, the following subclauses are taken to be inserted after clause 19 (10) of Schedule 10 to the Act:
  
(10A)  Subclause (10B) applies only to an access licence arising from an entitlement with respect to land in respect of which an interest was, immediately before 17 December 2010, registered under the Real Property Act 1900 or under the Corporations Act 2001 of the Commonwealth.
(10B)  No dealing that requires the consent of the holder of a security interest may be registered in relation to an access licence until the expiry of the prescribed period unless, before the expiry of that period, the holder of the interest:
(a)  has lodged with the Director-General a notice of the kind referred to in subclause (5) (d), or
(b)  has notified the Director-General that the holder does not propose to seek registration of the interest in the Access Register.
62   Entitlements held by 2 or more co-holders
Pursuant to clause 1 of Schedule 9 of the Act, clause 23 of Schedule 10 to the Act is taken to have been replaced by the following clause:
  
23   Entitlements held by 2 or more co-holders
Two or more co-holders of a replacement access licence are taken to hold the access licence:
(a)  if the Minister has a record of the shares in which the former entitlement was held immediately before the appointed day, in the same shares as the former entitlement was so held, or
(b)  if the Minister has no such record, but within 2 months after sending a written request to the co-holders seeking information as to their shareholding the Director-General receives:
(i)  a notice, signed by or on behalf of each of them, by which they agree as to the shares in which they hold the access licence, or
(ii)  a notice, signed by any one of them, to the effect that legal proceedings have been commenced for the purpose of obtaining a declaration as to the shares in which they hold the access licence,
in the agreed shares referred to in the notice under subparagraph (i), or in the shares determined pursuant to the legal proceedings referred to in the notice under subparagraph (ii), as the case may be, or
(c)  in any other case, as tenants in common with the entitlements conferred by the licence under section 56 apportioned equally between them.

replacement access licence means an access licence that is taken to have arisen under this Subdivision.
tidal pool water means water taken from a tidal pool water source.
tidal pool water source means the Bega River Estuary and Tributaries Water Source.
64   Application of Division
(1)  This Division applies to and in respect of each entitlement with respect to the water sources to which the Water Sharing Plan for the Bega and Brogo Rivers Area Regulated, Unregulated and Alluvial Water Sources 2011 applies and to and in respect of each access licence arising from any such entitlement.
(2)  A reference in this Division to an entitlement listed in Subdivision 2 of Division 8 of Part 4 of this Schedule includes a reference to an entitlement that is issued before 1 April 2011 under section 117J of the former 1912 Act or clause 24 of the Water (Part 2—General) Regulation 1997 as a result of a transfer of water allocation or water rights and that arises from an entitlement listed in Subdivision 2 of Division 8 of Part 4 of this Schedule.
Subdivision 2 Access licences for tidal pool water sources
65   Temporary exemption from requirements for certain access licences and approvals
(1)  All persons are exempt from:
(a)  sections 60A (1) and (2), 60C (1)–(4) and 60D of the Act in relation to the taking of tidal pool water, and
(b)  section 91A (1) of the Act in relation to the use of tidal pool water, and
(c)  section 91B (1) of the Act in relation to:
(i)  the use of any water supply work by which tidal pool water is taken (being a water supply work constructed before 1 April 2011), and
(ii)  the maintenance and repair of any such work,
for the period between 1 April 2011 and 1 April 2013 (inclusive).
(2)  Subclause (1) ceases to apply to a person in relation to land when the person is given notice under clause 66 of this Schedule of the terms and conditions of the person’s replacement access licence for the land.
(3)  The Minister may in a particular case by notice in writing to a landholder of eligible land extend the period of an exemption conferred by subclause (1) in its application to the landholder if the Minister is satisfied that the extension is necessary to enable the Minister to establish the landholder’s confirmed history of water usage.
66   Replacement access licences arising from confirmed history of water usage
(1)  A landholder of eligible land in respect of which there is a confirmed history of water usage is taken to hold an access licence (a replacement access licence), and such an access licence is taken to have arisen, on the following terms and conditions:
(a)  terms identifying:
(i)  the category or subcategory of the licence, as determined by clause 67 of this Schedule, and
(ii)  the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 68 or 69 of this Schedule, as the case requires,
(b)  the mandatory conditions referable to an access licence of the category or subcategory referred to in paragraph (a) (i).
(2)  A replacement access licence does not operate (and has no force or effect) until the Minister notifies the licence holder in writing of the terms and conditions of the licence referred to in subclause (1).
(3)  For the purpose of establishing the confirmed history of water usage for any eligible land, the Minister may require the landholder to furnish information relevant to that purpose.
(4)  The Minister is not required to issue a notice under subclause (2) if he or she is not satisfied that a confirmed history of water usage for eligible land has been established, whether because the landholder has failed to comply with a requirement under subclause (3) or otherwise.
(5)  This Subdivision does not operate:
(a)  to create a domestic and stock access licence (or an access licence of a subcategory of a domestic and stock access licence) in relation to land if:
(i)  the land has frontage to a tidal pool water source, or
(ii)  the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 68 of this Schedule, would be zero or negative, or
(b)  to create an unregulated river access licence (or an access licence of a subcategory of an unregulated river access licence) if the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 69 of this Schedule, would be zero or negative.
Note—
Because it is an access licence, a replacement access licence can be suspended, cancelled or compulsorily acquired under Division 6 of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, and discretionary conditions can be imposed under section 66. The licence holder will need to apply for any necessary water use approvals and water supply work approvals if he or she intends to take or use water under the authority of a replacement access licence.
67   Categories of replacement access licence
A replacement access licence is to be:
(a)  to the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for domestic consumption or stock watering:
(i)  if the water has been used for both domestic consumption and stock watering, a domestic and stock access licence, or
(ii)  if the water has been used for domestic consumption only, a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, or
(iii)  if the water has been used for stock watering only, a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, and
(b)  to the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used otherwise than for domestic consumption or stock watering:
(i)  an unregulated river access licence, or
(ii)  an access licence of any subcategory of an unregulated river access licence.
68   Share component for domestic and stock access licences
The share component for a replacement access licence that is a domestic and stock access licence is to be as follows:
(a)  except as provided by paragraphs (b) and (c), 5.5 megalitres,
(b)  in the case of a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, 1 megalitre,
(c)  in the case of a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, 4.5 megalitres,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
69   Share component for unregulated river access licences
(1)  The share component for a replacement access licence that is an unregulated river access licence is to be the amount (in megalitres) equivalent to the maximum average volume of tidal pool water taken annually and used on the eligible land concerned, otherwise than for domestic consumption or stock watering, between 2001 and 2011 (inclusive).
(2)  The reference in subclause (1) to the maximum average volume of water is a reference to:
(a)  if water was taken during only one of the years between 2001 and 2011, the volume of water taken during that year, or
(b)  if water was taken during only 2 of the years between 2001 and 2011, one half of the sum of the volumes of water taken annually during those years, or
(c)  if water was taken during 3 or more of the years between 2001 and 2011, one third of the sum of the 3 largest volumes of water taken annually during those years,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water, other than an entitlement that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
(3)  To the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for purposes other than:
(a)  irrigation, or
(b)  domestic consumption, or
(c)  stock watering,
the volume of water taken in any year is to be calculated (in megalitres) on the basis of that history.
(4)  To the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for the purposes of irrigation, the volume of water taken in any year for those purposes is to be calculated (in megalitres):
(a)  if the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates which crops specified in the Table to this clause were grown under irrigation on which parts of the land during that year, as the sum of the amounts obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of land on which each such crop was grown (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage) by the factor specified in that Table in relation to that crop, or
(b)  in any other case, as the amount obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of the land on which crops specified in the Table to this clause were grown under irrigation during that year (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land) by the smallest factor specified in that Table in relation to those crops.
(5)  Where more than one crop has been grown on the same land in the same year, the land may not be counted more than once for the purposes of subclause (4), but the higher or highest of the factors relevant to those crops is to be used.
(6)  For the purposes of this clause, a reference to a crop specified in the Table to this clause includes a reference to any other crop that the Minister determines to be an equivalent to that crop.

Example 1—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which 10 hectares were used for growing lucerne, 10 hectares were used for annual pasture and 10 hectares were used for vegetables (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land). The factors for these crops (using the Table above) are 5 (for lucerne), 1.5 (for annual pasture) and 4.5 (for vegetables). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 110 megalitres (that is, 10 times 5, plus 10 times 1.5, plus 10 times 4.5: see subclause (4) (a)).
Example 2—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which some were used for growing lucerne, some were used for annual pasture and some were used for vegetables (the specific areas not indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land). The factors for these crops (using the Table above) are 5 (for lucerne), 1.5 (for annual pasture) and 4.5 (for vegetables). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 45 megalitres (that is, 30 times 1.5: see subclause (4) (b)).
Example 3—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which all 30 were used for growing summer cereals (in summer) and all 30 were used for growing winter cereals (in winter). The factors for these crops (using the Table above) are 2.5 (for summer cereals) and 1 (for winter cereals). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 75 megalitres (that is, 30 times 2.5: see subclauses (4) (a) and (5)).
70   Conversion of share components of access licence
Clause 7 of Schedule 10 to the Act applies to and in respect of a replacement access licence in the same way as it applies to and in respect of an access licence arising under that Schedule.
Note—
This clause enables the share component of an access licence under this Subdivision to be converted from a specified quantity of water to any other manner (such as a unit share) in which a share component may be expressed under section 56 of the Act.
Subdivision 3 General
71   Supplementary water access licences

(3)  Pursuant to clause 1 of Schedule 9 to the Act, the following subclause is taken to be inserted after clause 5 (4) of Schedule 10 to the Act:
  
(5)  Subclause (1) does not apply to an entitlement listed in Subdivision 2 of Division 8 of Part 4 of Schedule 4 to the Water Management (General) Regulation 2011.
73   Registration of security interests in replacement access licences
(1)  Pursuant to clause 1 of Schedule 9 to the Act, clause 19 of Schedule 10 to the Act is to be construed as if the reference in clause 19 (5) to the commencement of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Act were a reference to 1 April 2011.
(2)  Pursuant to clause 1 of Schedule 9 to the Act, the following subclauses are taken to be inserted after clause 19 (10) of Schedule 10 to the Act:
  
(10A)  Subclause (10B) applies only to an access licence arising from an entitlement with respect to land in respect of which an interest was, immediately before 1 April 2011, registered under the Real Property Act 1900 or under the Corporations Act 2001 of the Commonwealth.
(10B)  No dealing that requires the consent of the holder of a security interest may be registered in relation to an access licence until the expiry of the prescribed period unless, before the expiry of that period, the holder of the interest:
(a)  has lodged with the Director-General a notice of the kind referred to in subclause (5) (d), or
(b)  has notified the Director-General that the holder does not propose to seek registration of the interest in the Access Register.

(i)  the use of any water supply work by which tidal pool water is taken (being a water supply work constructed before 1 July 2011), and
(ii)  the maintenance and repair of any such work,
for the period between 1 July 2011 and 1 July 2013 (inclusive).
(2)  Subclause (1) ceases to apply to a person in relation to land when the person is given notice under clause 77 of this Schedule of the terms and conditions of the person’s replacement access licence for the land.
(3)  The Minister may in a particular case by notice in writing to a landholder of eligible land extend the period of an exemption conferred by subclause (1) in its application to the landholder if the Minister is satisfied that the extension is necessary to enable the Minister to establish the landholder’s confirmed history of water usage.
77   Replacement access licences arising from confirmed history of water usage
(1)  A landholder of eligible land in respect of which there is a confirmed history of water usage is taken to hold an access licence (a replacement access licence), and such an access licence is taken to have arisen, on the following terms and conditions:
(a)  terms identifying:
(i)  the category or subcategory of the licence, as determined by clause 78 of this Schedule, and
(ii)  the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 79 or 80 of this Schedule, as the case requires,
(b)  the mandatory conditions referable to an access licence of the category or subcategory referred to in paragraph (a) (i).
(2)  A replacement access licence does not operate (and has no force or effect) until the Minister notifies the licence holder in writing of the terms and conditions of the licence referred to in subclause (1).
(3)  For the purpose of establishing the confirmed history of water usage for any eligible land, the Minister may require the landholder to furnish information relevant to that purpose.
(4)  The Minister is not required to issue a notice under subclause (2) if he or she is not satisfied that a confirmed history of water usage for eligible land has been established, whether because the landholder has failed to comply with a requirement under subclause (3) or otherwise.
(5)  This Subdivision does not operate:
(a)  to create a domestic and stock access licence (or an access licence of a subcategory of a domestic and stock access licence) in relation to land if:
(i)  the land has frontage to a tidal pool water source, or
(ii)  the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 79 of this Schedule, would be zero or negative, or
(b)  to create an unregulated river access licence (or an access licence of a subcategory of an unregulated river access licence) if the share component of the licence, as determined by clause 80 of this Schedule, would be zero or negative.
Note—
Because it is an access licence, a replacement access licence can be suspended, cancelled or compulsorily acquired under Division 6 of Part 2 of Chapter 3 of the Act, and discretionary conditions can be imposed under section 66. The licence holder will need to apply for any necessary water use approvals and water supply work approvals if he or she intends to take or use water under the authority of a replacement access licence.
78   Categories of replacement access licence
A replacement access licence is to be:
(a)  to the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for domestic consumption or stock watering:
(i)  if the water has been used for both domestic consumption and stock watering, a domestic and stock access licence, or
(ii)  if the water has been used for domestic consumption only, a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, or
(iii)  if the water has been used for stock watering only, a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, and
(b)  to the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used otherwise than for domestic consumption or stock watering:
(i)  an unregulated river access licence, or
(ii)  an access licence of any subcategory of an unregulated river access licence.
79   Share component for domestic and stock access licences
(1)  In relation to an entitlement or access licence in respect of a tidal pool water source in the Hawkesbury and Lower Nepean Rivers Water Source, the Southern Sydney Rivers Water Source or the Northern Sydney Rivers Water Source, the share component for a replacement access licence that is a domestic and stock access licence is to be as follows:
(a)  except as provided by paragraphs (b) and (c), 6.5 megalitres,
(b)  in the case of a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, 1 megalitre,
(c)  in the case of a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, 5.5 megalitres,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
(2)  In relation to an entitlement or access licence in respect of the Shoalhaven River Water Source or the Illawarra Rivers Water Source, the share component for a replacement access licence that is a domestic and stock access licence is to be as follows:
(a)  except as provided by paragraphs (b) and (c), 5.5 megalitres,
(b)  in the case of a domestic and stock [domestic] access licence, 1 megalitre,
(c)  in the case of a domestic and stock [stock] access licence, 4.5 megalitres,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
80   Share component for unregulated river access licences
(1)  The share component for a replacement access licence that is an unregulated river access licence is to be the amount (in megalitres) equivalent to the maximum average volume of tidal pool water taken annually and used on the eligible land concerned, otherwise than for domestic consumption or stock watering, between 2001 and 2011 (inclusive).
(2)  The reference in subclause (1) to the maximum average volume of water is a reference to:
(a)  if water was taken during only one of the years between 2001 and 2011, the volume of water taken during that year, or
(b)  if water was taken during only 2 of the years between 2001 and 2011, one half of the sum of the volumes of water taken annually during those years, or
(c)  if water was taken during 3 or more of the years between 2001 and 2011, one third of the sum of the 3 largest volumes of water taken annually during those years,
subtracting from each such volume the volume of any entitlement under the former 1912 Act that authorised the taking of tidal pool water, other than an entitlement that authorised the taking of tidal pool water for domestic consumption or stock watering (or both).
(3)  To the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for purposes other than:
(a)  irrigation, or
(b)  domestic consumption, or
(c)  stock watering,
the volume of water taken in any year is to be calculated (in megalitres) on the basis of that history.
(4)  To the extent to which the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates that tidal pool water has been used for the purposes of irrigation, the volume of water taken in any year for those purposes is to be calculated (in megalitres):
(a)  in the case of water taken from a tidal pool water source in the Shoalhaven River Source or the Illawarra Rivers Water Source:
(i)  if the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates which crops specified in Table 1 to this clause were grown under irrigation on which parts of the land during that year, as the sum of the amounts obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of land on which each such crop was grown (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage) by the factor specified in that Table in relation to that crop, or
(ii)  in any other case, as the amount obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of the land on which crops specified in Table 1 to this clause were grown under irrigation during that year (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land) by the smallest factor specified in that Table in relation to those crops, and
(b)  in the case of water taken from a tidal pool water source in the Hawkesbury and Lower Nepean Rivers Water Source, the Southern Sydney Rivers Water Source or the Northern Sydney Rivers Water Source:
(i)  if the confirmed history of water usage for the land indicates which crops specified in Table 2 to this clause were grown under irrigation on which parts of the land during that year, as the sum of the amounts obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of land on which each such crop was grown (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage) by the factor specified in that Table in relation to that crop, or
(ii)  in any other case, as the amount obtained by multiplying the number of hectares of the land on which crops specified in Table 2 to this clause were grown under irrigation during that year (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land) by the smallest factor specified in that Table in relation to those crops.
(5)  Where more than one crop has been grown on the same land in the same year, the land may not be counted more than once for the purposes of subclause (4), but the higher or highest of the factors relevant to those crops is to be used.
(6)  For the purposes of this clause, a reference to a crop specified in Table 1 or 2 to this clause includes a reference to any other crop that the Minister determines to be an equivalent to that crop.

Example 1—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which 10 hectares were used for growing lucerne, 10 hectares were used for annual pasture and 10 hectares were used for vegetables (as indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 5 (for lucerne), 1.5 (for annual pasture) and 4.5 (for vegetables). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 110 megalitres (that is, 10 times 5, plus 10 times 1.5, plus 10 times 4.5: see subclause (4) (a)).
Example 2—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which some were used for growing lucerne, some were used for annual pasture and some were used for vegetables (the specific areas not indicated by the confirmed history of water usage for the land). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 5 (for lucerne), 1.5 (for annual pasture) and 4.5 (for vegetables). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 45 megalitres (that is, 30 times 1.5: see subclause (4) (b)).
Example 3—
Suppose, in respect of any year, 30 hectares of a landholding were under irrigation, of which all 30 were used for growing summer cereals (in summer) and all 30 were used for growing winter cereals (in winter). The factors for these crops (using Table 1) are 2.5 (for summer cereals) and 1 (for winter cereals). The volume of water calculated for that year for the land would therefore be 75 megalitres (that is, 30 times 2.5: see subclauses (4) (a) and (5)).
81   Conversion of share components of access licence
Clause 7 of Schedule 10 to the Act applies to and in respect of a replacement access licence in the same way as it applies to and in respect of an access licence arising under that Schedule.
Note—
This clause enables the share component of an access licence under this Subdivision to be converted from a specified quantity of water to any other manner (such as a unit share) in which a share component may be expressed under section 56 of the Act.
