West Canning Basin groundwater allocation limit report

Guidance
Background information and method used to set an allocation limit for aquifers in the West Canning Basin
Last updated:

This report focuses on the Wallal aquifer as it is substantially larger than the Broome Sandstone aquifer within the West Canning Basin and has greater potential as a water resource.

The report summarises available hydrogeological, environmental, cultural and social information for both aquifers, reviews aquifer and groundwater subarea boundaries and describes the methods used to set allocation limits.
