Water allocation

Water allocation is about deciding how to divide and distribute water resources among different people, groups, and activities.

Water allocation plans sustainably manage and allocate water resources in the NT.

The framework guides how water resources are shared and used within and outside water allocation plan areas.

Announced water allocations specify how much water can be used based on resource assessments.

Beneficial water uses describe how a water resource benefits the community. Find declared areas in the NT.

Aboriginal water reserves help Aboriginal people get better access to water resources.
