           Updated Odour Modelling

           In response to further information requested by SCRC Officers by email on 19
           November 2013, MWA Environmental has updated the odour emission rate,
           meteorological and odour dispersion models to address the modelling preferences of
           Council’s technical reviewer. A detailed response is provided in correspondence
           Response to Sunshine Coast Regional Further Information Request of 19 November
           2013    Noise, Dust & Odour Issues Proposed Poultry Growing Sheds, Ridgewood
                      -                                          -




           (L26013/BH/12-002,29 November 2013).

           The results of the            updated         odour   modelling   demonstrate that cumulative odour
           impacts will comply with the Queensland odour guideline at surrounding residential
           dwellings.

           The results of the updated odour modelling indicate significantly lesser impacts from
           the proposed poultry growing sheds and litter stockpiling as compared the modelling
           originally undertaken by MWA Environmental and provided to Council.


           Top Forestry Road Dust Modelling


           MWA Environmental has reviewed the potential impact of the proposed development
           on overall dust emissions from     Top Forestry Road considering the average 3.2 truck
           trips generated per day at an existing Ingham’s farm at Redland Bay. It is noted that
           the Redland Bay farm holds more birds than proposed at the subject site and, as
           such, the truck trips are likely to be conservatively high.

           For the purposes of this assessment it has been assumed that Top Forestry Road
           current carries 200 vehicles per day.


           Based upon calculations in accordance with USEPA AP-42 and Environment
           Australia techniques, overall particulate emissions from Top Forestry Road are
           estimated to increase by less than 10% as a result of the proposed development.
           The overall dust emissions       resulting from current usage of the public road is
           significantly higher than the projected contribution from the proposed development.

           On this basis the proposed development would      only be expected to have a minor
           impact on current on dust levels at residences along Top Forestry Road.

           Yours sincerely
