Does WASB expect water report preparers to commence using ED AWAS 1 for their reporting or should they wait until AWAS 1 is issued?
We encourage water report preparers to consider early adoption and application of ED AWAS 1. We are confident from testing and development work over the past two years that ED AWAS 1 can be applied by report preparers for their GPWAR and will not need substantive changes in the short term. Evolution of the standards, and development of systems and capacity within organisations to apply these standards, will benefit from early exposure to the ED AWAS 1.
