298 Tablelands Rd Cooran.
Relevant Criteria for Assessment.
Below is listed the relevant criteria for assessment. It should be noted that approval
for this proposed business has already been granted a permit by the Department of
Environment and Resource Management, who has confirmed that all criteria adheres
to the requirements of both the Mary River Catchment and Environment Licence and
Perm its.
1. Proposal.
The material change of use is for a home based business type 3
for Quad Bike Tours from 298 Tablelands Road Cooran. It is
our intention to conduct small group tours using Quad Bikes to
enter the adjoining Woondum National Park. The tours will
have a maximum of 10 guests at any one time with 2 guides.
The tours are aimed at educating and increasing awareness of
the natural fauna and flora of this special area. The tours will
generate tourism in the area and offer local employment.
Permission for the tours has been granted by the Department of
Environment and Resource Management, as well as the
Queensland police. (See copies attached).
2. Location
298 Tablelands Rd is situated close to the entry of the
Woondum National Park and is surrounded by rural properties
of between 5 and 1 00 acres. (See distance to neighbouring
houses attached). The proposed area of Quad Bike storage and
the start of the tour is located well off the Road and far from any
neighbouring houses. The site is not visible from the road or
neighbouring properties.
...cont.Pg2

Page 2
3. Mary River Catchment
The property is within the Mary River Catchment area. The
relevant criteria of Waste Management, Pollution, Stormwater
run off, Soil Erosion and Fire Prevention and are each detailed
herein. Our proposal will have no negative impact to the
catchment area.
4. Transport and Vehicle traffic.
We shall advertise and promote the tours with a courtesy free
mini bus service. This service will provide door to door
collection and drop off. In addition we will encourage visitors
from areas serviced by public transport to use the train and bus
service, offering a free pick up from the local station situated
3Kms from the property. This will reduce the vehicle traffic to
the property to the lowest. Estimated to be on average one car
per tour commuting to our property. The traffic will therefore
have no additional impact to the road network or "Tablelands
Road.
.....cont.Pg3
Page 5
Page 3
5. Driveway and Parking
With expected low levels of traffic, our driveway and parking
facilities are still capable of servicing up to 6 visitor cars, I
disabled car, mini bus and 3 staff cars all at once. The second
drive to the property is over 3.5m wide, of compacted gravel
road base. It has a two way entry exit to the start and another
mid way. This allows for the safe flow of traffic in both
directions, with clear visibility to all traffic. Access to the road
has vision for more than 105m in both directions. The drive
surface is kept maintained by our own earth moving equipment
at the same yearly intervals as the road surface of Tablelands
Road. Traffic will be limited to set tour times of the day.
Parking is provided on a level area as depicted on both the site
plan and detailed on the Parking plan (both plans attached). It
should be noted that Shed B is used for the storage of farm
equipment and gates to the shed will be kept locked with the
exception of the area for the tractor fitted with fire fighting
equipment.
....cont.Pg4
Page 6
Page 4
6. Noise Impact
The proposed site for the start of the tour is located well away
from neighbours and is set in a trough of the property,
surrounded by trees and thick vegetation. After a 20 minute
verbal briefing guests will demonstrate their ability to ride a
quad bike. This will be done in a group situation lasting no more
than 10 minutes. During this time bikes will be operated at
1000rpm slightly higher than standard idle, generating a very
low level of noise. With the location and thick vegetation no one
outside of the property should be able to hear any noise. From
here the tour will begin with bikes required to travel behind a
lead bike at very low speed and revs no greater than 1500rpm.
This level will be kept until well into the National Park, when
speed and revs may increase to as much as 30Kmh and 2500rpm.
At 1500rpm or lower the noise level reaching neighbouring
properties will be no greater than 30dBA during any part of the
proposed tour. The Quad bikes to be used are of the latest
technology designed to be as quite as possible. These bikes are
not performance machines and are usually used for farming or
hunting, both of which require minimal noise output and as such
have been designed to be the lowest of all emissions. It should
be noted that the four-wheel drive track and Tablelands Road is
presently frequented by trial bikes generating far more noise
than Quad Bikes. As our noise levels will be controlled, there
will be no further impact to noise on the route of our tours. The
tours are also to be conducted in daylight hours with a
maximum of two tours per day.
.....cont.Pg5
Page 7
Page 5
7. Waste Management and Pollution
A standard wheelie bin shall be provided for all general waste.
We shall encourage our guests to minimise the quantity of waste
brought to the property and on tour. Guests will be warned as to
the disposal of camera batteries or any other hazardous material.
Should they wish to dispose of such we shall take responsibility
to dispose of such at a registered refuse facility. No food or
drink is allowed to be consumed whilst on the Quad bikes. All
waste generated by our guest or staff shall be our responsibility
to store and dispose of in the correct manner.
All servicing and oil changes will take place off the property at a
service centre. All refuelling of the quad bikes will be
undertaken over a spillage control tray. Refuelling will only take
place when no guests are on site and by a trained member of
staff, adhering to strict refuelling policy.
We propose to enforce a policy of no smoking whilst on the
tours.
9. Sewer and Water
As an initial service we propose to rent an on site portable
events toilet. These are chemical pump out systems serviced in
the rental on a weekly basis and pumped out as required. This
service is expected to be used for the first six months. Later
being replaced with a composting or similar approved toilet
system. Water will be filtered and pumped into the holding tank
for gravity feed water supply. Drinking water will be supplied
by way of stored bottle water on site. Total water storage is over
40 000 litres rain water in tanks and 30 000 litres in a small
holding dam.
.......cont.Pg6
Page 8
Page 6
9. Soil Erosion and Stormwater
All existing driveways and tracks have been maintained to
ensure correct drainage of storm water. The driveways have
been compacted with road base incorporating correct drainage.
The quad bikes have the lowest footprint and as such will create
no soil erosion or damage to the driveway or Tablelands Road.
Storm water run off from the roofing of buildings and sheds is
collected in rain water tanks. The total storage is 40 000 litres in
tanks and a small dam of approximately 30 0001itres. The
overflow from all water storage runs into a natural collection
gully. This gully also receives direct run off from Tablelands Rd.
The proposed Quad bike tours will have no impact in this regard.
10. Fire Prevention and Control
All areas in and around the proposed site will be kept clear of
debris and dried foliage. A fire extinguisher will be carried on
the lead bike and 2 large units kept near the refuelling area of
the storage shed. A 5000 litre tank will be available for gravity
feed and 30000 litres of dam water for petrol pumping if
required. All gutters to roofs have been fitted with metal gutter
guards and are constantly kept clean of debris. The rainfall to
the area is very high and as such the vegetation is rated low
combustible. In the event of a fire there are three evacuation
routes. Guests will be removed from the area at the first sign of
any fire. A fire safety plan will be displayed indicating the
evacuation assembly point; this will also be included in the
briefing. A tractor equipped with full fire fighting water storage
and pump is constantly on standby. This vehicle can reach all
parts of the property for fire fighting purposes. There is also a
portable petrol fire pump equipped with 50m of fire hose.
.....cont. Pg7
Page 9
Pagel 11. Signage A sign displaying the name of the business and street number will be fixed to the 2nd driveway gate post. This sign will be no greater than 750mm x 400mm and the colours used will be that of earthen shades with limited or no bright colours. No smoking signs will be displayed every 3 meters and larger signs near quad bike storage. Guest will be briefed as to the site being non-smoking only. Private and No entry signs will be displayed across tracks and gates not to be entered by guests or staff. Staff only sign will be displayed in areas of staff parking and staff access only inclusive of bike storage area Shed A. First aid sign will be displayed above or below first aid storage box. Inclusive of a sign to the lead quad bike. Fire equipment signs will be displayed at fire fighting equipment. Keep clear sign will be displayed at tractor parking area. 12. Safety from Crime and Insurance During unattended periods and after hours the entry gate to the property will remain locked. Full time CCTV will monitor the site with a full colour recording of the last 48hours. A security alarm is fitted to all gates and entry points of both Shed A and Shed B. All guest will be require to sign a disclaimer whilst on the property or taking part in the tour. A public liability insurance of no less than $20 million will be valid at all times from the start of this proposed business.

1. Able to safely operate a Quad Bike
2. Understand our strict rules of riding safety.
3. Understand our strict rules of conservation.
4. Agree and understand our terms and conditions.
5. Pass a brief practical riding test.
Providing we are confidant of our participant's ability to
conduct the tour to our briefing and in accordance to our
terms and conditions we will commence the tour on our
property.
This will be done with a lead guide at the front of the group
and a second guide at the rear of the group. With all quads
keeping in a single file adhering to our safety rules including
that of no overtaking and no 2 Quads abreast.

APPLICATION ASSESSMENT
AD)l)I'I'IONAL INFORMATION
The area we propose to use of the Woondum National Park is
a designated 4 Wheel Drive track. It is used by both 4 Wheel
drive vehicles and off road motorcycles. Regular 2 wheel
drive vehicles are unable to traverse this track. We propose
to use low range geared Quad Bikes which will be
permanently locked into low range.
The Quad Bikes will be 250cc minimum governed to a max
speed of 30Kmh. The wheels are unable to slip on the terrain,
therefore no damage to the road. The emissions are at the
lowest of all off road vehicles inclusive of noise. This is the
lowest impact of all off road vehicles.
As we propose small groups of no more than ten guests,
there will be no effect on the present access to nature or
ecologically sustainable use of the area or wildlife.
During our proposed tours, we will be an extra set of eyes for
both nature conservation and reporting of any illegal
activities. In recent visits to the area, I have noted a fair
amount of litter left behind, when it is clearly signed that
visitors take their garbage with them as the area is not
serviced. We propose to clean up and remove all litter left in
this area by not only ourselves but third parties, (to a fair a
reasonable regard (i.e.) excluding the removal of major
dumping or discarded vehicles) as a token of our
appreciation for the use of this area.
The 4WD track we propose to use has very little traffic. The
condition of the track surface and layout of the track
enforces restricted speed by all vehicles using it.
Page 21
In accordance to many strict rules of operation for our proposed tours, some factors ensuring safety are; Speed governed to a maximum of 30Kmh. Bright coloured bikes and safety gear. Pole mounted red flags fitted to all bikes. Single file driving and stopping, with no overtaking or side by side riding of both cars and bikes. Full training and testing of all tour participants to a very high standard prior the proposed tour. In the interest of public health and safety, we shall undertake full liability and indemnity insurance to a value of $20 million. This policy will be undertaken prior to commencement of any proposed tours and forwarded to all authorities to satisfy our operational obligations and conditions. All guides involved in our proposed tour will undergo an advanced Quad Bike Riding and training course conducted by either of the two recognised training branches of Yamaha or Honda Australia. Further they shall all hold a certificate in first aid, and be trained on nature conservation and rules of the national park. There will be no further impact, or cumulative effect to the area we request to use as it is already a designated four wheel drive track. All vehicles used in our tours will be Conditionally Registered with Queensland Transport; Conditional Registration does include compulsory third party insurance. The use of the road and public area shall also be approved by Queensland Police and any other relevant authority prior to us operating.
