Mundaring Reservoir is part of the urban water supply system, so it has the same licence agreements for water abstraction as the other 13 major reservoirs (see line item 25.1.2.4).
The total surface water allocation announcement is assumed to equal 100% of the annual entitlement.
Not applicable.
The announced allocation is made after a review, by the Department of Water, of the surface water level of Mundaring Reservoir in October each year.
