                                                                                                                                      (i)  summing the quantity of water that would have been taken by those forms of take for each year of the historical climate conditions under State water management law as at 30 June 2009; and
                                                                                                                                      (ii)  dividing that quantity by all of the years of the historical climate conditions; and

                                                                                                                                  (c)  the long‑term annual average take of water from watercourses under basic rights calculated on the basis of the take under the level of development that existed on 30 June 2009; and
                                                                                                                                  (d)  the long‑term annual average limit on the quantity of water that can be taken by runoff dams (excluding take under basic rights) calculated on the basis of the quantity of water that could be taken under State water management law as at 30 June 2009; and
                                                                                                                                  (e)  the long‑term annual average take of water by runoff dams under basic rights calculated on the basis of the take under the level of development that existed on 30 June 2009; and
                                                                                                                                  (f)  the long‑term annual average net take of water by commercial plantations calculated on the basis of the take under the level of development that existed on 30 June 2009.
                                                                                                                                Note to paragraph (a): The Authority estimates this to be 314 GL per year. The details of modelling assumptions and system set up used for making this estimate are documented in MDBA Technical Report 2010/20.
                                                                                                                                Note to paragraph (b): The Authority estimates this to be 11 GL per year.
                                                                                                                                Note to paragraph (c): The Authority is yet to estimate this take.
