Water Act 2000

A responsible tenure holder, for a make good obligation for a water bore or a report obligation, for a resource tenure to which an approved underground water impact or final report relates, is—

if the report is an underground water impact report for a cumulative management area—the resource tenure holder identified in an underground water impact report as the responsible tenure holder for the obligation; or

if the report is an underground water impact report or final report for a resource tenure, including a closing CMA tenure—the holder of the resource tenure.

Also, a resource tenure holder directed under section 418 to undertake a bore assessment of a water bore is a responsible tenure holder for the make good obligations for the bore.
