WRIMS - Groundwater Areas (DWER-085)

Groundwater areas stored in WRIMS (Water Resource Information Management System).

For the purposes of groundwater resource management, the state of Western Australia is divided into groundwater management areas or groundwater areas. The extraction and licensing of groundwater resources are managed within groundwater areas in order to ensure environmental requirements are met and to prevent over extraction of the resource.

Some Groundwater Areas stored in WRIMS do not accurately reflect the official gazetted Groundwater Area boundaries, however a program is currently underway to realign the boundaries. Please contact the data steward for more information.
