  6              ELECTRICAL, GAS AND
                 TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES
                 A Dial Before You Dig search was undertaken to determine what services are currently in the
                 area and identify potential connection points for the proposed service station and retail centre
                 development.


6.1              Energex and other Electrical Items
                 Low voltage electrical cables currently exist within Lionel Donovan Drive, Eumundi Noosa Road
                 and Walter Hay Drive around the site.

                 It is understood that the proposed development must incorporate an underground low-voltage
                 electricity supply to all facilities within the development in order to comply with council
                 legislation. The existing overhead lines and poles bounding the site will remain overhead as the
                 development does not propose any additional allotments. Proposed verge crossings have also
                 been located clear of the existing overhead cable support poles. Refer to Appendix D for Dial
                 Before You Dig results by relevant asset holders.


6.2              Communications
                 There is existing Telstra infrastructure in the area to which the site is connected to. Telstra
                 infrastructure is located within the site, as well as within the Eumundi Noosa Road and Lionel
                 Donovan Drive road reserves adjacent to the site. The existing major cables pit to the north of
                 the existing northern verge crossover will remain in its current location, clear of all proposed
                 works.

                 There is also an existing underground Optus cable along Eumundi Noosa Road.


  7              ROADS AND ACCESS
                 Currently, access to Lot 4 on SP159610 is accessible via a left in, left out facility at two locations
                 on Eumundi Noosa Road. Access to Lot 31 on SP170751 is provided via Lionel Donovan Drive,
                 however there is no constructed driveway to the lot in its current state.

                 The development proposes to maintain the left in, left out access on Eumundi Noosa Road,
                 however the access points will be shifted south to allow for heavy vehicle and fuel tanker entry
                 to the site. There will also be an access driveway on Lionel Donovan Drive to the site.

                 Pedestrians must be provided with safe and direct access around the service station and
                 industrial tennancies. Pedestrian access points will be provided from Eumundi Noosa Road and
                 Lionel Donovan Drive. Pedestrian crossings will also be included to provide safe passage for
                 pedestrians to the different outlets on site.

                 It is understood that all footpaths must be designed in accordance with Noosa Council
                 standards and be approved for Operational Works prior to construction.

                 Details of the proposed internal and external road network as well as the provided site access
                 points are presented in Hyder Engineering Drawings in Appendix C.
