Catchment oversight costs are approximately $370,000 or around five to seven percent of total annual costs. Catchment Oversight and Information and Advice include a diverse range of activities, which may vary from year to year, and zone to zone. This diversity makes it difficult to carry out any meaningful economic analysis of beneficiaries and contributors. The benefits are generally considered to be widespread.

Consequently, Catchment Oversight and Information and Advice have been spread evenly across the general rate and the catchment and zone differentials after contributor proportions have been subtracted.
