3. For the purposes of clause 19.0.1 (1) (b) of the Act, the assessed value of the water intake and discharge facilities at the Darlington Generation Station shall be determined in the following manner:

1. For each of the 1999 and 2000 taxation years, the assessed value shall be determined by multiplying the difference between the replacement cost new of the facilities and the amount, as determined by the assessment corporation, of accumulated depreciation to the end of that year by a factor for obsolescence equal to 0.237882.

4. For 2004 and each subsequent taxation year, the assessed value shall be determined by multiplying the assessed value for the previous taxation year by the factor determined using the formula,

1 + (A – B) / B

in which,

“A” is the Industrial Product Price Index for March of the previous taxation year, and

“B” is the Industrial Product Price Index for March of the year before the previous taxation year.
