  Attention: Tara Norley

         RE: Response to Information Request MCU21/0033 Proposed Unit Development at 31
                                   Bottlebrush Ave, Noosa Heads

  Dear Tara,

  In response to Council’s Further Advise Notice dated 7th April 2021, we provide the following further
  information.

  Item 15 and 16
     By adopting the revised design, we certify that a B99 vehicle can enter and exit the site in a forward
     direction without scraping or bottoming out on the driveway and/or the road formation as modelled on
     Empire Engineering Civil Design (SC-8839).

  Item 17.1
     A 10kL stormwater detention tank has been provided as sized and described in the Site Based
     Stormwater Management Plan as attached, discharging peak flows at a mitigated flow rate to the kerb
     and channel.

  Item 17.2
     The existing upstream overland flow path has been diverted within the site, around the proposed unit
     development, directed down the south eastern property boundary. This was achieved by utilising the
     adequately sized Vantage Pipe ‘Vspoodrain’ product as seen on Empire Engineering Plans Drawing
     Number C003, before discharging to the kerb and channel via 2/100mm pipes.




  We trust the above response satisfies Council requirements in relation to this matter. Should you have any
  further queries, please contact the undersigned at our Sunshine Coast office.

  Yours faithfully

     RE:       SITE         BASED   STORM   WATER    MANAGEMENT          PLAN     FOR    PROPOSED
     APPARTMENTS AT 31 BOTTLEBRUSH AVE, NOOSAVILLE


     1. INTRODUCTION
     The proposed development consists of a multi-apartment development and associated car
     parking. The site is fronting Bottlebrush Ave to the South West and existing residential
     allotments to the remaining boundaries. The site is currently occupied by a single two story
     residential dwelling with its associated access driveway. The total site area is 506m 2 and has an
     approximate fraction impervious of 46% (Fi = 0.46).


     2. STORMWATER CONNECTION
     Under existing conditions, stormwater runoff discharges to the kerb and channel fronting the
     subject site, before falling to the North West before flowing into the existing 300mm diameter
     underground stormwater network. The proposed stormwater will continue to discharge into the
     Bottlebrush Ave kerb and channel in accordance with local council’s discharge flow rates of
     maximum 25L/s.


      3. STORMWATER QUANTITY
     The proposed development will increase the impervious nature of the site compared to pre-
     development to a fraction impervious of 80% (Fi = 0.80). Therefore, peak flow mitigation is
     proposed to limit minor and major flows (50%, 20%, 10%, 5%, 2% & 1% AEP), to that of the
     pre-development scenario to ensure the downstream pipe capacity is not worsened.

Page 3

Detention will be incorporated in the post-development scenario for the minor events that will
discharge into the existing kerb and channel. XP-STORM V2017.2 was used to determine the
detention volume required and the results are illustrated in Table 1.1. Table 1.1 illustrates that
10kL of detention with two 100mm diameter outlet mitigates the minor event discharge to less
than the required 25L/s flow rate and less than the pre-development scenario.


A concept stormwater management plan has been provided in Attachment 1, and hydrographs
have been attached in Attachment 2.
