Bushfire Hazard Assessment & Management Plan v1                                      NCES REF: J000542
Lot 9 on RP225312 – 100 Cooyar Street, Noosa Heads




1. Revegetation or rehabilitation areas contain patches of less than one ha of continuous fuel (i.e.,
surrounded by either no fuel or non-continuous fuel) and are further than 100 metres from the
interface with mapped medium, high or very high potential bushfire intensity patches greater than
two hectares in size. Vegetation corridors in these areas with continuous fuel, should be less than
50 metres in width and isolated patches of continuous fuel, should be less than 0.5 hectare.
No revegetation or rehabilitation areas are currently proposed. It is recommended that any
landscaping undertaken within the site facilitates conditions which satisfy Assessment Benchmark 7
below.
Assessment Benchmark 7
Where a requirement for an asset protection zone (or similar) exists
Landscaping treatments comprise only low threat vegetation, including grassland managed in a
minimal fuel condition, maintained lawns, golf courses, maintained public reserves and parklands,
vineyards, orchards, cultivated gardens, commercial nurseries, nature strips and windbreaks.
OR
Landscaping management maintains a potential available fuel load which is less than eight
tonnes/hectare in aggregate, and fuel structure which is discontinuous.
OR
Development includes a bushfire management plan for the maintenance of any identified asset
protection zone, including landscape design and ongoing vegetation management.
This document includes a Bushfire Management Plan which addresses Landscaping treatments.
