THE WATER REGISTER:
The new online Water Register for Western Australia.The Water Register is a web based program designed to allow searches for licensed water and water availability.The online water register provides stakeholders with an easy to use map based interface.
The type of information contained in the water register includes:-
- volume of water licensed;
- start and end dates of a water license;
- name and contact details of a licensee;
- water resource to which a license relates;
- security interests in a water license;
Water trading within Western Australia has traditionally been at low levels when compared with the Eastern States.However with increased water demand and in some areas of WA a dwindling resource as a result of climate variability, water trading will become more prevalent in the South West.
The new Water Register provides a key information source for those seeking to obtain or trade water.For researchers and students the Water Register is an easily accessible online resource for obtaining water information.
