20 May 2008 Greg Wilson Chair Essential Services Commission
Our Ref: #2460463,2007/216/1 Your Ref: Greg Wilson 20 May 2008 Chair Essential Services Commission Level 2, 35 Spring Street Melbourne VIC 3000 Dear Greg Rural Water Price Review - Goulburn-Murray Water response to ESC draft decision Goulburn-Murray Water (G-MW) has reviewed the draft decision of the Essential Services Commission (ESC or “the Commission”) in relation to its Water Plan for the period 2008/09 to 2012/13 and is pleased to have the opportunity to respond. We note the proactive response provided by the ESC regarding the difficulty in determining future water prices in an environment undergoing significant capital investment. Importantly this capital investment has a largely unknown effect on how we will deliver our services in an automated environment. Operating efficiency gains need to be offset against the increased cost of maintaining these new structures. G-MW are grateful for the interim review opportunity to re-submit further pricing proposals for key services by October 2008. You will note in our response that G-MW have accommodated as much as practicable the recommended variances to the Water Plan 2008/09 – 2012/13. However there are some essential programs that have targeted water savings and strict timeframe deliverables. These have been clearly highlighted for your final consideration. As they are externally funded the majority of these deliverables will have little or no effect or water pricing. Details have also been provided on appropriate service standards as requested. In addition, G-MW proposes a number of changes to reflect additional obligations, such as the introduction of the Terrorism Act early this year. -
