2018-04-10 S&O Agenda - Attachment 1 to Item 6 - Sand Recycling System Asset Management Plan

3. Future Demand
3.1      Demand Drivers
There is currently an adhoc approach of demand management applied to the management of the
SRS through, the serviceability of the SRS, the agreed levy contributions, the contract management
of the contractor and the compliance with the permit conditions. Targets initiated to assist in
monitoring activities of the SRS should act as an indicator to reviewing demand management. It is
Council policy that any change in the level of service due to demand is reported to Council in
accordance with current guidelines and practices.

The major driver of capital upgrade for the SRS will be changes in legislative/statutory requirements,
compliance with WH&S policies, changes in technologies or changes to the contracted operational
activities. The recent Condition Audit Report 2 for this facility highlighted the need to improve on
preventative maintenance activities to preserve the current life of the assets.


3.2      Demand Impacts on Assets
The most significant impact on assets from demand relate to periods of scheduled closures for asset
repairs/refurbishment or maintenance works. These scheduled activities should ideally be
undertaken outside of the regular storm season, November to May, where beach erosion is most
prevalent.
