NOISE ASSESSMENT BENCHMARKS

From review of the assessment benchmarks under the Noosa Plan 2006 and the Superseded Noosa Planning Scheme, we believe that the Noise Management requirements
had been reasonably conditioned as part of the previous CDA 132005.1133.9 dated 14 May, 2019 given the context and history of the proposed development.

                                            1998 or Council’s Local Law No. 12 – Control of Nuisances.
                                            81. Noise emission from mechanical equipment (air conditioners, refrigeration
                                            equipment, or pool pumps etc) shall comply with the following requirements:
                                            a. A person must not use equipment on any day if it makes or causes noise to be made:
                                            i. From 10pm to 7am: Not more than the higher of either:
                                            a. 40 dB(A)
                                            b. 3 dB(A) above the background noise level
                                            No audible noise for pool pumps apply during these hours
                                            ii.     From 7am to 7pm: Not more than the lower of either:
                                            a. 50 dB(A)
                                            b. 5 dB(A) above the background noise level
                                            iii.    From 7pm to 10pm:
                                            a. Not more than 3 dB(A) above the background noise level.
                                            82. Submission of written certification from a suitably qualified person confirming that
                                            the noise levels from all mechanical equipment complies with the requirements of
                                            Noosa Council Local Law No. 12 – Control of Nuisances and the requirements of the
                                            Environmental Protection Regulation 1998.
                                            The assessment and certification is required immediately after installation of the
                                            equipment and prior to any occupation of the building, and in a format approved by
                                            Council. This assessment must take into account noise from any other fixed equipment
                                            on the property e.g. swimming pool pump, heating/cooling equipment, etc that may
                                            increase the overall noise level emitted.
                                            Advice: It is highly recommended that the person you engage to certify the installation is
                                            involved at the plan development stage so they can recommend where this equipment is
                                            best located. They can also advise about noise enclosures and can make other
                                            suggestions to avoid noise problems. It is a lot more costly to try and deal with noise
                                            problems after everything is built.
                                            83. The development shall comply with the noise management strategies contained in
                                            the report prepared by Ron Rumble Pty Ltd and dated November 2006, with the

                                            83.3 The applicant must advise prospective purchasers that a noise management plan
                                            has been prepared to manage noise emissions related to the development.
                                            83.4 The Noise Management Plan referred to in Condition 83.2 shall be incorporated in
                                            perpetuity in the By‐Laws of the Body Corp for the building.
                                            83.5 The Noise Management Plan shall include a process for dealing with complaints
                                            and specify that the Restaurant Management and Body Corp Manager be responsible
                                            for dealing with any noise complaints.
                                            84. The location and noise attenuation for all plant and equipment is to comply with the
                                            requirement of the Environmental Protection (Noise) Policy and Noosa Council’s Local
