Groundwater Border Agreement

As part of the cross border management between South Australia and Victoria, zones have been set up either side of the state borders. These borders zones are also referred to as the 20 kilometre zones and are divided horizontally. The zones extend 20 kilometres either side of the state border and extend from the southern coastline up to the River Murray. This layer contains only the South Australian zones. This layer will mainly be used for administration purposes for water licensing. While this dataset was created in June 1998, the age of the zones is unknown and probably date back to early period of development of the South Australian/Victorian border agreement on groundwater.
