Attachment 3—Reasons for referral agency response
(Given under section 56(7) of the Planning Act 2016)

The reasons for SARA’s decision are:

The proposal complies with State code 7: Maritime safety of the State Development Assessment
Provisions (SDAP) due to all vessels, structures, plant and equipment associated with the project will be
lit/marked in accordance with the required standards such that they do not cause a risk to navigation
safety.

The proposal complies with State code 8: Coastal development and tidal works of SDAP: Specially,
the development:
        will not adversely impact coastal processes
        enhances public use of, and access to and along state coastal land

The proposal complies with State code 11: Removal, destruction or damage of marine plants and:
Specially, the development:
       maintains marine plant communities and protects ecological functions to which they contribute
       minimises impacts of fisheries resources and fish habitats
       the significant residual impact on matters of state environmental significance will be
            counterbalanced through an environmental offset.

The proposal complies with State code 22: Environmentally relevant activities of SDAP: Specially, the
development:
       is located to minimise environmental harm on environmental values of the natural
          environment, adjacent sensitive land uses and sensitive receptors
       avoids impacts on matters of state environmental significance, and where avoidance is not
          reasonably possible, minimises and mitigates impacts
       adequately mitigates impacts associated with the environmentally relevant activity.
