ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH
      Acoustic Report –Design Stage
42.   An acoustic report prepared by a suitably qualified person* must be submitted to council that
      addresses the noise impacts from plant and equipment etc. on nearby residences and
      commercial areas of Wimmers Lane and Garnet Street at the detail design stage prior to
      commissioning the equipment. The acoustic report must demonstrate compliance with the
      requirements specified in Table 1 of this Decision Notice when measured at either the
      residential boundary or outside the most exposed part of an affected building, whichever is
      the closest to the equipment. The acoustic report must address the following:
         mechanical equipment such as a/c units, motors, refrigeration equipment,
           compressors, pumps, rooftop plant and equipment, ventilation, fans, plant rooms,
           refuse compactors and pumps etc. and;
         the location of any plant and associated equipment,
         measured background noise levels
         a description of acoustic enclosures and screenings if used
         attenuation measures to comply
      Noise - Mechanical Plant and Equipment
43.   Mechanical plant and equipment, a/c units, motors, refrigeration equipment, compressors,
      pumps, rooftop plant and equipment etc. must be situated within the building where possible
      or suitably provided with noise reduction measures and located as to prevent a noise
