Box 77 Gatton Qld 4343 Chair Queensland Competition Authority GPO Box 2257 Brisbane Qld 4001 28th November 2018 Dear Sir, RE: CENTRAL AND LOWER LOCK.YER IRRIGATORS SUBMISSION UNDER SECTION 23 OF THE QUEENSLAND COMPETITION AUTHORITY ACT 1997 PRICE PATH PERIOD 2020-2024 This submission is on behalf of the Lockyer Valley Irrigators in the following water supply schemes constructed and owned by the State of Queensland and operated by SEQW being: • Atkinson Dam • Lake Clarendon • Mortonvale Pipeline • Bill Gunn Dam This submission is in regard to the yet to be introduced 4 year price path (2020 - 2024) and seeks to address maters of fact in the continual underlying poor performance of the schemes and argues that new policy is required when formulating a price path for schemes that will never be able to reach cost recovery or breakeven. Lockyer Valley Irrigators will also be providing a response when the Commission calls for submissions on the SEQW prici,ng proposals for the four years from July 2019 Current Situation: SEQW has advised customers under the pricing principles expected to be implemented by the QCA that the next price path will include the introduction of Part A (fixed cost) and Part B (variable cost) groundwater pricing for Central Lockyer Water Supply Schemes and that will result in the water charges being split at 95% Part A and 5% Part B. Mortonvale Pipeline Users will in addition pay Part C and Part D charges on the pipeline. The introduction of fixed Part A charges will occur with the introduction of water allocations in the Central Lockyer. -
