Discount of 2.5% is given to those using the direct debit payment method. Sutherlands The total income collected from Sutherland’s users is $233,400 per annum ($19,450 per month): Capacity charges are based on the users’ nominated flow rate. No increase proposed to the 2014/2015 charges of $461.05 per litre/second. The Water charge is based on 135% of the OWL water charge. As no increase is proposed to the OWL water charges, the charge for unshared water is $643.39 per litre/second. Discount of 2.5% is given to those using the direct debit payment method. Incremental Water - Collett Road The charge is based on a % of the OWL water charge. As no increase is proposed to the OWL water charges, the charge for unshared water is $91,900 p.a. ($7,658 per month). Discount of 2.5% is given for using the direct debit payment method. Infrastructure Charges Levels Plain Scheme No increase is proposed to the prior year 2014/2015 charges. Income from Levels Plain users is calculated from an annual charge of $40.92 x 3,296 shares - $134,872 p.a. or $11,239 per month. This equates to an infrastructure charge per share of $3.41 per month, plus GST. Discount of 2.5% is given to those using the Direct Debit payment method. Budget Assumptions 2015/2016 - year ending 30 June 2016 1 Issue Date: 30.06.2015 State Highway 8 Users State Highway users who do not hold “water” shares or have not paid the capital cost of the buried mainline pipe are charged in accordance with the agreement they had with Levels Plain Irrigation. Water charge is $237.96 per hectare (OWL water charge $197 + LPIC admin charge $40.96). Capacity charge in lieu of capital contributions is $200.00 p.a. per hectare. Kakahu Scheme Income from Kakahu users is calculated from an annual charge $246.72 x 3,208 shares - $791,478 p.a. or $65,956 per month (last year $276.72, reduction of $30 per hectare as resolved at “I” class meeting in July 2015). This equates to an infrastructure charge per share of $20.56 per month (last year $23.06), plus GST. Refinancing undertaken as part of the restructure has given the opportunity to reduce the financial charges to the KIL scheme. Discount of 2.5% is given to those using the Direct Debit payment method. Totara Valley Scheme Income from Totara Valley users has been calculated from an annual charge $161,342. The annual charge is made up from A and E shares, some full, some partly paid. No increase is proposed to the prior year 2014/2015 charges. Discount of 2.5% is given to those using the Direct Debit payment method. The income collected from “E” share charges of $49,454 p.a. is to be applied to interest charges and debt reduction associated with the $230k loan with ANZ. Water Abstraction Charges (Timaru District Council) TDC charges are subject to CPI increase at June quarter. The CPI increase is estimated at 1.1%, based on the last 3 years average (below), and has been applied from 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016. Income from TDC per month is estimated at $329,469 p.a. ($27,456 per month). Opihi Augmentation - prior year charge of $233,446 plus an estimated CPI increase of 1.1% - total $236,014 ($19,668 per month).

  • Water Resource Summary: Pareora-Waihao
    Pareora – Waihao River: Water Resource Summary Report No. R06/20 ISBN 1-86937-602-1 note CHAPTER 5 DRAFT - not ready Prepared by Philippa Aitchison-Earl Marc Ettema Graeme Horrell Alistair McKerchar Esther Smith August 2005 1 Report R06/20, ISBN 1-86937-602-1 58 Kilmore Street PO Box 345 Christchurch Phone (03) 365 3828 Fax (03) 365 3194 75 Church Street PO Box 550 Timaru Phone (03) 688 9069 Fax (03) 688 9067 Website: www.ecan.govt.nz Customer Services Phone 0800 324 636 2 Executive summary The water resources of the rivers and associated groundwater resources draining The Hunters Hills in South Canterbury are described and quantified. These rivers include the Pareora River in the north and the Waihao River in the south, and those between. None of the rivers is large and while they sometimes flood, their usual state is to convey very low flows. Given the population in the region, including Timaru which takes much of its water supply from the upper Pareora River, the region is arguably the most water deficient in the country. More than 100 years of record are available for several raingauges in the region. Mean annual rainfalls are less than 600 mm on the coast, increasing to about 1200 mm at higher points in The Hunters Hills. Monthly rainfalls show a slight tendency toward lower values in winter months. Typical (median) monthly totals range from about 25 mm to about 80 mm. Particularly dry periods occurred in 1914-1916, 1984-1985, 1989-1999 and 2001 to 2003. Since 1996, annual rainfalls have exceeded the mean annual values in only two or three years.
