The Water Sources Protection Guidelines for Multipurpose Reservoirs describe steps
to follow to prepare a Water Source Protection Plan. The description in this Volume is
derived from the 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 multipurpose reservoir or valley
tank.
The Volume is intended to be a standalone document for ease of its application by
those concerned with reservoirs. 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.
