MCU Decision Notice

                                                                                    MCU16/0043


      Waste Storage
28.   The developer must provide waste storage and disposal facilities in accordance with
      Planning Scheme Policy 9, Waste Management, including an external imperviously paved
      area correctly sized for all refuse and recycling containers and suitably screened from
      public places and neighbouring properties.
29.   A bin wash area is required with a cold-water tap, hose and drain outlet connected to
      sewer, via a bucket trap. The drain outlet is to be designed to prevent storm water entry to
      the sewerage system which can be achieved by a bunded area, with a nib wall height of
      100mm maximum, enclosing a wash area of 700mm x 700mm minimum (max 0.7m²).
      Alternatively the waste area can be roofed, or any other appropriate design approved by
      Council.
      Noise
30.   Written certification is required from a suitably qualified person confirming that sound
      pressure levels from all mechanical plant and equipment comply with the following :
      a.       Air-conditioning and Refrigeration
           •    7am to 10pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 5dB(A)
           •    10pm to 7am: Maximum level allowable = background + 3dB(A)
      b.       Pumps
           •     7am to 7pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 5dB(A)
           •    7pm to 10pm: Maximum level allowable = background + 3dB(A)
           •    10pm to 7am: No audible noise.
      Assessment and certification is required immediately after installation of the equipment
      and prior to any occupation of the building. All equipment should be operating at the
      same time to test the overall noise level created, with the measurement location at either
      the residential boundary or outside the most exposed part of an affected building -
      whichever is the closest to the plant/equipment.
31.   The certification must be submitted to Council, which certifies that operational noise from
      any fixed plant and equipment complies with the requirements of this Decision Notice.
