To construct a high-level evaluation scenario for the Water Sharing Plan (the Plan) for the Macquarie and Cudgegong Regulated River Water Source all account-based Plan Environmental Water (PEW) rules and Held Environmental Water (HEW) licences have been removed from the Current Conditions model. Specifically, it included the following PEW rules stipulated in Section 14 of the Plan: Environmental Water Allowance for Cudgegong The Macquarie Translucent sub-allowance Macquarie Active sub allowance The flow at the following key sites within the river system has been considered in the evaluation analysis (with data provided for an extended range of sites): 1) 421019_Cudgegong@YambleBridge 2) 421001_Macquarie@Dubbo 3) 421004_Macquarie@WarrenWeir 4) 421012_Macquarie@Carinda 5) Combination of 421088_MareboneBreak and 421090_Macquarie@DSMareboneWeir 6) 421146_Gum Cowal @ B/Cation 7) 421022_Macquarie@OxleyStation 8) 421090_Macquarie@DSMareboneWeir Note: If you would like to ask a question, make any suggestions, or tell us how you are using this dataset, please visit the NSW Water Hub which has an online forum you can join.

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.

Annual permitted take (APT) is a critical component of sustainable resource management, balancing the need for water resource utilisation with the preservation of ecosystems. It is a crucial mechanism for ensuring the long-term annual sustainable diversion limits (SDLs) set under the Murray-Darling Basin Plan are not exceeded, and that enough water is available for the environment. APT is the maximum amount of water permitted to be taken for consumptive purposes each year, and has been enforced since July 2019 A method for determining APT is part of each water resource plans (WRPs) developed by the Basin states under the Commonwealth Water Act 2007. When the method is applied over the Basin Plan reference period (1895–2009), the annual APT must be equal to or less than SDL. An APT model is a major component of the APT calculation method. It is used to calculate the APT that would be expected in a year, given that year’s water availability and climatic conditions. APT is calculated at the end of each year and compared to actual take in that year, with the difference added to a public register of take. SDL compliance is tracked using the cumulative difference (from water year 2019–20). APT models are configured using estimates of the river management and development (public and private infrastructure) conditions in a river system across the water resource plan period. These estimates include: • irrigated crop area and planting decisions • water entitlement holders’ distribution and use patterns • how storages are operated to supply water for consumption and the environment.
