or if (T + Q) > R, then —
R
where —

T = the charge calculated in accordance with the following
formula —

U × V

where —

U = the number of beds in the nursing
home; and

Q = the quantity charge calculated in accordance with the
formula in item 38; and
R = the charge calculated in accordance with the formula
in item 36.
35. Certain country strata-titled units

In respect of country Commercial/Industrial property that is
in a country sewerage area that —

(a)

comprises a unit that is a lot within the meaning of the Strata Titles Act 1985; and

(b)

shares a major fixture with another unit described in paragraph (a) and has no other major fixtures that discharge into the sewer,

and where the total number of major fixtures shared by all
the units on the relevant strata plan is less than the number of
those units, an amount is calculated in accordance with the
following formula —
T + Q
where —

T = $320.70; and
Q = the quantity charge calculated in accordance with the
formula in item 38.
36. Limit on increase

For the purposes of this Division, the maximum charge
(“R”) is calculated in accordance with the following
formula —
If (P + Q) − A > B, then —
if (A × S) > (A + J), then
(A × S)
or if (A × S) ≤ (A + J), then
(A + J)

or if (P + Q) − A ≤ B, then —
if (A × S) > [A + {(P + Q) − A} / O], then
(A × S)
or if (A × S) ≤ [A + {(P + Q) − A} / O], then
[A + {(P + Q) − A} / O]

where —

P = the target annual charge, based on the number of
major fixtures calculated using the Table in item 37;
Q = the ultimate discharge charge calculated using the
formula in item 38, except that the discharge
allowance calculated in accordance with item 39(a) is
200 kL;
A = the equivalent full year charge payable in the
2004/2005 year;

calculated according to the following formula —
If A ≤ (C + D), then —
X
or if A > (C + D), then —
A – [{A – (C + D)} / E]
where —

A = the equivalent amount payable in the 2004/2005 year;
C = the charge payable for the relevant number of major
fixtures for the 2005/2006 year as set out in the Table
to this item;
D = the ultimate discharge charge;

38. Formula for quantity charge

For the purposes of Division 7, the quantity charge (“Q”) is
calculated in accordance with the following formula —
If (F × G) ≤ H, then —
nil
or if (F × G) > H, then —
{(F × G) – H} × I
where —

F = the volume of water delivered to the property in the
2005/2006 year;
G = the discharge factor set for the property for the
2005/2006 year;
H = the discharge allowance for the 2005/2006 year
calculated in accordance with item 39; and
I = 1.931,
and where only the integer value (i.e. rounded down to the
nearest whole number) of (F × G) – H is to be used in
calculating the final charge.

39. Discharge allowance
For the purposes of item 38, the discharge allowance is —

(a) for land to which item 36 applies that is not mentioned in paragraph (d), an amount of water in kilolitres calculated in accordance with the following formula —
If X ≤ C, then —
L
or if X > C, then —
L + [(X – C) / K]
where —

X = the annual charge for the 2005/2006 year
calculated in accordance with the formula in
item 37;
L = 200;
C = the charge payable for the relevant number of
major fixtures for the 2005/2006 year as set

(b) for a caravan park referred to in item 33, an amount of water in kilolitres calculated in accordance with the following formula —
L + M
where —

L = 200; and
M = 75 kL of water for each long term residential
caravan bay;
(c) for a nursing home referred to in item 34, 75 kL of water per bed; and
(d) for properties served through a common metered service, 200 kL of water for each property.
