General description
Water abstractions may be taken directly from the flowing waters in the channel (surface water abstraction), or indirectly from wells by pumping water from aquifers that may be closely connected to rivers (groundwater abstraction). Furthermore, water abstraction from rivers can be achieved through inter-basin flow transfer schemes, whereby the donor river system has its flow reduced below its diversion.
