Summary:

Coca-Cola Amatil (Aust) appealed the conditions placed on a permit for water extraction at a water bottling plant, which restricted the rate of extraction and total extraction levels.

Taking into account the impacts of climate change on rainfall, the court suggested that the extraction rates and levels should be reevaluated in 2011 using more timely data.
