Shares and the right to water may be transferred to a person or entity that owns or farms a property in the scheme area or any other person or entity, approved by the Board.
Where the shares and the water rights attached to those shares relate to a specified approved property the Board may require that the water continues to be supplied to that property as a precondition to ensure that other water users’ reliability is not affected.
