Who will prepare GPWAR?
Any water entity deemed to be a water-reporting entity will have to prepare GPWAR. A water entity is a broad concept encompassing any entity that interacts with water (geographic or otherwise). For example, a catchment, a river or a particular reach of a river would each meet the definition of a water entity. The level of interest in each entity (based on its financial, social and environmental significance) determines whether that entity is also a water-reporting entity. Water-reporting entities have users that depend on GPWARs to help them make decisions. Identification of water-reporting entities will be an ongoing process.
