VIC is it an offence for unauthorised people to make rain clouds

[day]

-"Under the Rain-making Control Act 1967 (Vic) – it is an offence for unauthorised people to make rain clouds"
why was/is this a law ?

I'd take that unless you have the authority to do so, you cannot just perform cloud seeding. I'd assume that this is a law otherwise, anyone can just perform cloud seeding.

There's a word for amateurs, back yarders, cowboys, and the tin foil hat brigade
dumping unregulated, potentially large and harmful, amounts of chemicals into the atmosphere.

"Pollution".
