A common misconception is that reductions to allocations have been confirmed and a percentage loss to allocation has been decided upon.

No decisions have been made regarding reductions to allocations. The Limestone Coast Landscape Board has been transparent that reductions to allocations are within scope of the amendment process. Some areas within the Lower Limestone Coast Prescribed Wells Area are over allocated and reductions to allocations is one way to address this. Adaptive management is another way to manage over allocation. As part of the amendment, the Limestone Coast Landscape Board is considering both ways to address over allocation. Community and stakeholders will be a part of the process to determine the best way forward to bring over allocation back to agreed sustainable limits.
