Cooperation in environmental watering. Characteristics of licensed entitlements South Australia’s Statement of Assurance noted that characteristics of licence entitlements held for environmental use were not enhanced or diminished relative to like entitlements held and used for other purposes during 2014–15 (SA Govt 2015). The MDBA have not been notified of any restrictions that would constitute discriminatory or preferential treatment for licensed entitlements held for environmental use. 7 xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxx.xx.xxx.xx/Xxxxxxx/XXX/Xxxxx/xxxxxxx.xxxx The Department is aware that South Australia has prepared a draft Water Allocation Plan for the River Xxxxxx Prescribed Watercourse. The Commonwealth Environmental Water Holder (CEWH) has expressed concern that the proposed principles for allocating water in dry conditions may result in the substitution of planned environmental water with held environmental water (specifically where there is a requirement for the Minister to give consideration to environmental water made available by the CEWH to South Australia, when determining the volume to be allocated to other users). The Department anticipates that South Australia will consider the issues raised by the CEWH when finalising the River Xxxxxx WAP during 2015-16. Annual environmental watering priorities South Australia’s Statement of Assurance confirmed that the MDBA was provided with annual environmental watering priorities, consistent with the Basin Plan, prior to 31 May 2015.

It documents the agreed program for environmental water delivery along the River Xxxxxx in South Australia, including the Lower Lakes, Coorong and Xxxxxx Mouth. In the 2014-15 assessment period, annual environmental watering priorities were also developed for the Eastern Mount Lofty Ranges, and the South Australian Xxxxxx regions.

Cooperation in environmental watering. Characteristics of licensed entitlements Victoria’s Statement of Assurance confirmed that characteristics of licence entitlements held for environmental water use were not enhanced or diminished relative to like entitlements held and used for other purposes during the assessment period (Vic Govt 2015). The MDBA have not been notified of any restrictions that would constitute discriminatory or preferential treatment for licensed entitlements held for environmental use. Measures implemented to facilitate the use of environmental water Schedule A requires that – where feasible and agreed by Victoria, and where associated third- party impacts have been considered – measures will be implemented to facilitate the use of environmental water by protecting environmental water in-stream and on land through: • the delivery of held environmental water in-stream though arrangements such as water shepherding to facilitate environmental flows • further use of environmental water at multiple locations along the river, such as through return-flow provisions. Within this context, Victorian, Commonwealth and TLM environmental water is generally delivered through entitlements held by the Victorian Environmental Water Holder (VEWH). Victoria makes use of return flows to enable environmental watering to be achieved at multiple sites10. Annual environmental watering priorities Victoria’s Statement of Assurance confirmed that the MDBA was provided with annual environmental watering priorities, consistent with the Basin Plan (Vic Govt 2015). The 2015–16 seasonal watering plan of the VEWH has also been made publicly available (VEWH 2015)11.

Publicly available information from the VEWH and MDBA websites confirm that environmental watering that occurred during 2014–15 was broadly consistent with the Victorian Seasonal Watering Plan and with the 2014–15 Basin annual environmental watering priorities12.
