Water boundaries and erosion

The following information relates to recording a water boundary in a CSD where erosion affecting the water boundary has occurred.

Where erosion has occurred, the Diagram of Survey and Diagram of Parcels must depict:

• the erosion as a separate residue parcel, which must be described as erosion without any other description or appellation [r 9.6.3(h)(iii) and r 10.4.2(f)(iii)].  An area is not required,
• the water boundary in its new position as an irregular line at a scale that clearly shows its shape and relationship to other boundaries [r 9.6.7(a)(i) and r 10.4.5(a)],
• the former water boundary as an accepted irregular line boundary [r 6.3(b) and r 6.7(c)], and
• the name or a simple description (such as sea, stream, river, or lake) for the water body that abuts the new erosion parcel r 9.6.3(h)(iv) and r 10.4.2(f)(iv)]

The erosion parcel must have the parcel intent hydro.
