  Beneficial Use - Lower Tertiary

dataset: BU_LTER
This layer is part of a set that defines the beneficial use of Victoria's groundwater resources. According to the Victorian Environmental Protection Authority (EPA), a beneficial use is a use to the environment, or a segment of the environment which is conductive to public benefit, welfare, safety, health or aesthetic enjoyment and which requires protection from the effects of waste discharges, emissions or deposits. A beneficial use may be an existing or potential use. A resource may have more than one beneficial use. The State's groundwater resources have a number of beneficial uses. These uses primarily depend on groundwater quality and aquifer yield and can be assigned to broad water quality classes.

Attribute Quality
The layers show broad ranges, and sometimes generalizations have been necessary, either through a lack of data, or due to the natural complexity of groundwater flow systems, or because subtle changes in salinity cannot be shown at this scale. 
Positional Accuracy
Though a large amount of groundwater data has been used to produce this layers. There has nevertheless been considerable interpretation, simplification and generalization. There is no certainty that the mapped water quality range applies for a given location, or that groundwater is suitable for a given purpose in terms of chemical composition or yield.
