		A water market is a reallocation of water in which the value of the water is considered independent of the value of land and improvements, buyers and sellers participate voluntarily, and terms of the sale, including the price, are decided by the buyer and seller.
		Canada Wet Incorporated, a division of the McCurdy Group of Companies based in Gander, Newfoundland, has proposed to pump 500,000 cubic meters (400 acre-feet) per week, or about 25 million cubic meters (20,000 acre-feet -- the volume of Lake Austin) per year from the Newfoundland lake, and ship the water to foreign markets.
		In transboundary water issues, water marketing could provide flexibility in handling water apportionment between riparians, but could also result in exporting riparians (upper riparians in the case of transboundary rivers) overcharging for their water deliveries.
