Supply of sand material; Supply of pavement material (excluding rock for spray seals and hot-mix seals); Contractor employee accommodation and meals.Table 8-6Summary of Spending Breakdown<strong>Island</strong> SpendingMainland Spending% of Total SpendingRetained on KIScenario 2 $677,566 $9,170,675 6.9%Scenario 3 $2,836,087 $13,853,230 17.0%Scenario 4 $7,918,284 $29,931,322 21.3%From Table 8-6 it can be seen that as the size of the upgrade increased, so does the localspending. This is largely due to the increased size of the runway and thus the increased volumesof pavement material required for these scenarios. In addition it should be noted that the largerprojects will also require a longer construction period and/or more contractors. This means thatlocal spending on accommodation and food will also increase during the construction period.The foregoing analysis almost certainly under-estimates the <strong>Kangaroo</strong> <strong>Island</strong> component of theproject cost. It is highly likely that Adelaide based contractors would make some use of locallabour, plant and subcontractors. Not all activities would require highly skilled or specialisedresources. However, it is difficult to quantify this additional local content. Some assumptions inthis regards could reasonably be made during the economic analysis, but no guidance is able tobe offered herein.Ref No. 20120935DR1A <strong>Kingscote</strong> <strong>Airport</strong> Infrastructure Study Report 28
