Fair Use Policy

A Fair Usage Allowance will apply to ensure that your energy usage is not excessive and kept within reasonable and sensible limits. The allowances are designed to be generous and if you are sensible with your energy consumption, it is unlikely you will exceed these limits. This is based on a percentage of your berth fee and has been calculated on the cost of electricity over many years.

Should consumption exceed fair use limits, the usage will be monitored for a 'snap shot of two days and the calculated excess will be charged for the whole period of occupation.  

Water usage must be kept within reasonable limits and for the purposes applied. Excessive use and wastage will be calculated abnd the person/s responsible will be charged accordingly to cover any costs that we deem to exceed a fair amount.
