September 2006 – IPART final determination on bulk water prices
On 12 September 2006 the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal of NSW (IPART) released its determination on bulk water prices from 1 October 2006 to 30 June 2010. View the determination on the IPART website (PDF 393KB).
Under the IPART determination, the Department of Water and Energy can charge licensed water users for water management services. For information on the applicable charges for 2007/2008 go to water management charges for licensed water users (PDF 99 KB). State Water also charges for the operation and delivery of water to regulated river licence holders.
Under the 2006 determination some irrigators in the unregulated river system, can elect to be billed for their water management charges on a two-part tariff. If you have a water meter, go to Measuring Licensed Water Extraction and TPUT for more information on some alternative tariff arrangements.
