             would not be applicable.



             In order to achieve the criteria and protect the amenity of the area, we recommend that:


                   .   Use of the     loading dock to the west should be restricted to day-time periods, between
                       7:00am. to 6:00pm;


                   .
                       Usage of HRVs accessing the loading dock to the west should be restricted to day-time

                       periods, between 7:00am. to 6:00pm;

                   .   Refuse waste collection activities should be restricted to day time periods only, between

                       7:00am to 6:00pm; and


                   .
                       Usage of MRVs for loading and service activities to speciality shops to the east should be
                       restricted to daytime and evening periods, between 7:00a.m to 10:00p.m every day.




             Quieter reversing beepers and minimal use of air brakes at night can minimise the risks of noise

             complaints from the adjoining residences. In this instance, conditions should be imposed on the
             site such     as   ’quaker beepers’ are used instead of conventional beepers and that the use of air
             brakes at night are minimised as far as practicable.


             Noise    predictions of quasi-continuous sources at the commercial site, and comparison with the
             minimum       logged LAeq noise levels are summarized in Table 11.

             It can be seen in Table 11 that compliance is achieved for trucks mounted with small refrigeration

             units during the daytime, evening and night.




             Our assessment shows that some loading activities can                    potentially exceed the nominated noise
             limits. It should be noted that the assessment is based                   on   typical noise source emissions that
