In response to water usage issues, certain areas within the state may be prescribed in order to control future water extraction processes. The prescription may be either area based or watercourse based (or in some area both e.g. Barossa). This layer contains the linework of the water resource areas (surface water, groundwater and watercourse) which have been prescribed through legislation. This layer is maintained as the master linework of the prescribed areas within the state.
