The Water Sources Protection Guidelines for Point Source Water Supply systems
describe steps to follow to prepare a Water Source Protection Plan. The description in
this Volume is derived from overall Framework for Water Sources Protection
Guidelines (Volume 1). The document emphasises those steps, actions and
considerations that are particularly relevant to protecting a water source for a piped
water supply scheme.
The Volume is intended to be a standalone document for ease of its application by
those concerned with piped water supply systems. However, the user may wish to
refer to Volume 1 where appropriate so as to ensure that the guidelines in this
Volume are correctly interpreted in context of the overall framework for protecting
water sources.
