[QUOTE="reefer, post: 357781, member: 775"] This is a very tantalizing piece of law :D ....but I think you will find that the by-laws under the Mining Act still apply here.Sure, it could be argued that you may take up tp 3 Megalitres of water! but the Mining Act. clearly states that the water cannot be obtained by mechanical means, either fuel=driven or electrical, for the purpose of 'processing'. Every drop of that 3Megs, has to be drawn by hand...or gravity,(read)Siphon. :( I could be very wrong mind you...but the way I see it, there's no getting around it. It says in the Water Management Regulations..I'm fairly certain, that the Regulations do not preclude the conditions set out in the Mining Act. :/ Please ,..somebody... show me clear and unequivocal evidence to the contrary... 8.( please. ]:D Rossco.
