    Dear Sir


    Operational Work, Prescribed Tidal Works - Request for comments
    Pontoon - Sun Lagoon Resort, 1Quambay Place, Noosa Heads (Lot 0 on BUP4192)

    Thank you for your letter of 22 February 2011 about your proposal to construct a pontoon at the
    location mentioned above.


    As a concurrence agency, Maritime Safety Queensland has no objection to the proposal provided the
    following navigation and marine safety conditions are complied with.

    1.   The contractor must build the pontoon according to Superior Jetties, Drawing No6132-D01, dated
          10 February 2011.


    2.   No part of the structure or any ship berthed at this structure is to come closer than 1.5metres from
         the side boundaries of the allocated water space as shown on the submitted water allocation plan.


    3. The pontoon and all freestanding piles must be lit and clearly visible to approaching vessels. The
       contractor must position all lighting so it does not cause a risk to the safe navigation of other
       vessels.

   4.    The applicant or his agent is responsible for the removal of any existing structure above or below
         the waterline, and must contain and remove any debris. Any pile that needs to be removed must
         be totally extracted.


   5.    The ship moored at this pontoon must follow the most direct course from this structure to open
         waters and a similar direct course when returning to this pontoon.
