Throughout the water season, the resource manager makes seasonal determinations which specify the water that is available to holders of water shares, supply by agreements and bulk entitlements in declared systems.

The resource manager usually announces a determination as a percentage of the entitlement volume and as an increase since the last determination. Seasonal determinations are based on the water system source and the reliability of an entitlement.

Note that seasonal determinations are also commonly referred to as seasonal allocations.
