FURTHER INFORMATION:
If water is to be sourced from a river,
lake, ocean or bore hole, rather than the water mains,
and is to be used as a coolant and not reused for heating
(i.e. is discharged back into the water body), a Water
Extraction Licence, and possibly a Foreshore Licence,
licence will be required. Applications for a Water Extraction
Licence are made to the local
authority, and a copy of the granted application will
need to be supplied to the CER. Applications for a Foreshore
Licence, if required, are made to the Coastal Zone Management
Division of the Department of Communications, Marine and
Natural Resources.
A local
authority may issue a notice under Section 23 of the
Water
Pollution Act 1977, requesting specific information
to be provided in relation to water abstractions being
carried in its area. Local authorities must keep a register
of water abstractions greater than 25 cubic meters per
day. |
