They usually occur in regions where there are competing demands for water, there is a risk from water use to significant environmental values, or a need to manage the whole system (surface water and groundwater resources) due to significant inter-connection.\n\n## **Dataset History** \n\nThrough the Water Act, water control districts and water allocation plans, the Northern Territory Government is striving to achieve a sustainable balance between development and conservation so that residents, tourists and businesses can continue to enjoy the benefits derived from river and groundwater systems that are properly managed.\n\n\n\nThe Act provides the legal framework for the allocation of water to various declared beneficial uses including; agriculture, aquaculture, public water supply, stock and domestic use and industry while ensuring that adequate provisions are made to maintain cultural and environmental water requirements.\n\n\n\nThe Act allows for the declaration of water allocation plans within water control districts, ensuring water is equitably managed to preserve quality of life and the integrity of the water dependent ecosystems in the region.\n\n\n\nA water allocation plan details the area and water resource to which the plan applies as well as the vision, objectives, strategies and performance indicators of the plan. It also sets limits to the availability of water assigned to each beneficial use, rules for managing licences and the rules for water trading.\n\n\n\nThe benefits of this water allocation planning process are:\n\n\n\n    A transparent stakeholder driven plan that will protect environmental and human interests;\n\n    Secure water extraction licences for the duration of the water allocation plan;\n\n    An assurance that licences to extract water (from a source defined within the plan) will not be issued if they are deemed to have unacceptable repercussions on other beneficial uses, especially the environment;\n\n    Establishment of a basis for the permanent trade of water from one location to another (within the area defined by the plan) subject to various rules;\n\n    Protection of water related cultural values within the region; and\n\n    Protection of water dependent ecosystems within the region.\n\n## **Dataset Citation** \n\nNT  Department of Land Resource Management (2014) Northern Territory Groundwater Management Units 20140630.

There are two separate programs of bioregional assessments.\r\n\r\nThe Bioregional Assessment Program (2012 - 2017) seeks to better understand the potential impacts of coal seam gas and large coal mining developments on water resources and water-related assets. It is one of a number of actions undertaken by the Australian Government to strengthen the science underpinning decision making on coal seam gas and large coal mining developments.\r\n\r\nThe Geological and Bioregional Assessment Program (2017 - 2021) assessed the potential impacts of shale and tight gas development on water and the environment.
