Hi Midnight and Tobzalp
Based on your notes I have gone back into the detail of the price notification.
On 11 May 04 DOTARS (with due consideration to ACCC ruling)have outlined their cost model for 5 years.
The present 'tower' subsity is approved for this budget until 30 June 2005, however, 'no present intension for the subsity to continue' after this date. At this point it becomes user pays.
The five year cost recovery model includes fees to recover all cost, ie up to $110 per landed tonne. Therefore after the 'tower' subsity ceases in July 2005 the price will increase from 8.60 (next years price as outlined in the documents) to up to 109.55 at Parafield in 5 years time.
The trap is in the fine print, please read.
