EAST SUFFOLK IDB RATE ESTIMATES FOR 2011/12 EXPLANATORY NOTES

1. NEW WORKS AND IMPROVEMENT WORKS The Health and Safety Report prepared by Chris Mutten has identified some minor works needed at each pumping station in order to comply with health and safety legislation, a copy of which has been given to each Pumping Station Attendant. Chris has also provided estimates for carrying out this work, which have been included in the Budget for 2011/12. At the time of writing this Report the Board still has an allocation for health and safety improvements in the Environment Agency’s (EA) mid-term capital programme next year, which means that such work should attract grant aid at 45%. If it does not the work should proceed as maintenance work and as such will attract a similar highland water contribution from the EA (see item 6 below). The British Pleuger pump at Colony Marsh pumping station has a worn impellor and needs replacing within the next 4 years, which could cost between £20k and £40k to do. It has been scheduled for replacement in the EAs mid-term capital programme for 2013/14, however the level of reserves in the Alderton, Hollesley and Bawdsey Sub District is not sufficient to pay for the balance of this work. It is recommended that the Board should either build up the capital reserve in this sub district by significantly increasing the Rate over the next 3 years or take out a loan from the Public Works Loan Board to finance the upgrade when required. On preparing these Estimates it has been assumed that the latter option would be preferred. The capacity of the pump at Reydon Marsh is inadequate and needs upgrading. Again it is recommended that the Board should either start to build up the capital reserve in the Blyth Sub District by significantly increasing the Rate or take out a loan from the Public Works Loan Board to finance the upgrade when required. On preparing these Estimates it has been assumed that the latter option would be preferred and that no loan repayments will need to be made in 2011/12.

2. CONTRIBUTIONS PAYABLE TO THE ENVIRONMENT AGENCY The EA precept is expected to be the same as it was last year. However the cost of the precept for 2011/12 has been allocated to each Sub District according to its proportion of the Board’s total assessable value for the purposes of Drainage Rating because the EA are no longer able to provide work programmes (and therefore costs) for each of the old districts. In the absence of more detail from the EA this seems to be the most equitable and sustainable way of apportioning EA Precept charges.

3. MAINTENANCE WORKS

Maintenance works include pump attendance, power costs; pump repairs and drains maintenance for each sub district, together with a share of the technical support costs that were shown previously as administration costs. The rationale here is that technical support costs support the delivery of front line services (e.g. engineering/environmental consultancy costs), whilst administration costs support the organisation (e.g. the Board’s share of WMA Rating/Finance staff costs). The advantage to the Board of accounting for technical support costs in this way is to maximise the highland water claim from the EA (please see item 6 below). We have been battling with British Gas who currently supply electricity for the Board’s pumping stations and they now appear to be invoicing us for actual usage as opposed to estimated usage at most sites. However we are still waiting for credits at the Colony Marsh pumping station and Sudbourne pumping station. We may need to consider installing SMART meters at each station in future to ensure that automated billing for actual usage continues. The projected out-turn for maintenance in the Lower Alde (Tidal Pumped) Sub District is significantly more than was estimated largely due to the unplanned refurbishment of Gedgrave Outfall (approx. £10,000) and the inclusion of 13% of the technical support costs, previously referred to and accounted for as administration costs. In 2011/12 I recommend that the Board start to depreciate 3 of the 5 Lower Alde pumps, which equates to the same amount as the 4 associated public works loans and interest repayments (approx. £24k pa). This will ensure that the Lower Alde (Tidal Pumped) Sub District raises sufficient cash to make the loan repayments and has an appropriate capital reserve from which to finance the pump refurbishments/replacements in future. We have assumed that the level of maintenance work carried out next year will not change significantly from the projected out-turn for this year in all Sub Districts (2010/11). We have also budgeted for introducing a programme of lifting pumps once every two years, to start in 2011/12.

4. ADMINISTRATION AND OTHER COSTS Administration costs and the technical support costs referred to in item 3 above are allocated to each Sub District according to a ‘distribution factor’ that was agreed by the Board in 2008:

2


River Deben (Tidal Pumped): 12% Lower Alde (Tidal Pumped): 13% AHB (Tidal Pumped): 4% Blyth (Tidal Pumped): 2% Gravity: 69% Administration costs are projected to be significantly lower than was estimated for 2010/11 largely due to not incurring the following costs: Business Plan, set-up costs: £11,366 Digitisation of hereditaments and maps: £20,000 Technical support costs: £13,694 (now included within the maintenance budget) Biodiversity Action Plan implementation: £3,750 Not replacing Finance Officer: £2,567 Administration costs should also be lower than estimated for 2011/12 if the WMA successfully implements its efficiency and cost reduction programme during the next 6 months.

5. GOVERNMENT GRANTS The health and safety works that have been identified by Chris Mutten in his Report should attract grant aid at 45% from the EA. The grant for each pumping station will therefore be credited to the appropriate Sub District.

6. CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE ENVIRONMENT AGENCY The Board claims highland water contributions from the EA every year, which are then credited to each of the 5 Sub Districts according to an agreed fraction of the value of the maintenance work that has been carried out in each Sub District, (which includes a proportion of the technical support costs, as previously referred to, applied pro-rata to the value of maintenance work actually carried out in each Sub District). This income is designed to reimburse the Board for the expenditure it incurs managing the drainage and flood risk management infrastructure within its Drainage District that conveys surface water from outside the Drainage District through its arterial network.

7. OTHER INCOME We have assumed that the Board will continue to receive a modest amount of Interest on its working balances. Investment interest has been

3


apportioned to each Sub District according to the actual and projected closing balances of each Sub District as a proportion of the Board’s total closing balances.

8. DRAINAGE RATES AND RESERVES Subject to the Board’s agreement with the above, I am recommending a rate freeze for each of the Sub Districts this year, given the current economic climate. However it should be noted that in order to do this the Gravity Sub District will have to take approx. £19.5k from its General Reserve in 2011/12, due to the Rate being incorrectly calculated last year. It is important to note that by holding the Rate this year we will have to increase the Rate in this Sub District by 18% next year. We are now planning for each Sub District to hold a modest General Reserve balance, which should provide the contingency sought by the Board for unplanned work in each of the 5 Sub Districts (a general rule of thumb is that the General Reserve should be somewhere between 20% and 25% of net expenditure). However if the Board would like a single contingency fund as opposed to 5 separate funds then differential rating should ultimately be abolished. Clearly a balance always needs to be struck between fairness and the Board’s ability to raise money, reduce volatility of the Rate(s), optimise use of its Reserves, and, minimise the cost of administration. For example it would not be fair or equitable for those in the Gravity Sub District to abolish differential rating because there is a large difference between this Sub District’s Rate requirement of 5.428p and the single Rate requirement of 7.727p, unless they were going to receive an increased level of service. So if differential rating was ever abolished or the 5 Sub Districts were reduced to say 2 Sub Districts (Tidal Pumped and Gravity), the various funds associated with each of the existing 5 Sub Districts would need to be ring-fenced to each of the 5 areas and only ever used to fund work in these areas. I recommend that the Board reviews each of its 5 Rating Sub Districts to ensure that they are based on mutually exclusive areas of benefit rather than on areas that provide a convenient mechanism through which to harmonise an historic rating profile. We may find that the Board needs more as opposed to fewer Rating Sub Districts, particularly if we are to get involved with reinstating primary sea defences and taking on EA Main River work in the upper reaches. The Board should also ensure that its Electoral Divisions cover the same areas as its Rating Sub Districts because at the moment they are quite different: he who pays must get the say.
