- All numbers are indicative, do not include proposed catchment actions (e.g. 2024 Water Resources Management Plans), are based on consumptive abstraction, and are subject to local review
- Licences that are less than 20% consumptive have been filtered out, but may require action after local review
- If no abstraction reductions are identified, abstraction may still need to reduce once local data and information has been considered
- If a licence has a "Hands off Flow" (HOF) condition it may already have the appropriate level of constraint
