     1.   Bioretention Basin has been placed in a proposed Drainage Reserve adjacent to Lake
          MacDonald Drive. One (1)bio-retention basin is proposed with an area of 25m2. It has
                 layer depth of 0.5m and an extended detention depth of 0.3m. The size and
          a filter

          depth of the systems have been designed in accordance with Figure 4.2. The bio-
          retention basin drains to a gully within the site.



4.2.3     Rainfall Data


The meteorological data used for the MUSIC Model was the data for Cooroy from 01/01/92-
31/12/01. The choice of the data was based on the mean annual rainfall for Cooroy being
similar to the mean annual rainfall for Lake MacDonald Drive:

Rainfall of 1600mm. It is considered that the 10 year period from 1992 2002 has a relatively

close mean annual Rainfall to the recommended 10 year period and as such is acceptable to
use in this case.



4.3       MUSIC Modelling Results


The MUSIC modelling program has been used to investigate the performance of various
treatment options in the treatment train. MUSIC Version 5 is capable of incorporating rainwater
re-use in the model. These features have been used         in making comparisons between different
stormwater management systems for this report.


4.3.1     Water Quality Objectives


This model meets the pollution load reduction target as detailed in Water by Design Deemed to
Comply Solutions Storm water Quality Management (South East Queensland) version 1.0-

The information above indicates that the new lots will achieve reductions in pollutant loads as
detailed in Table 4.2 below.
