GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                               13 AUGUST 2018


         The application for operational works must include a detailed Erosion and Sediment
         control plan prepared by a Certified Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control, in
         accordance with the International Erosion Control Association Best Practice Book
         Series, including:
         a.    The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan must include for staging of construction
               to minimise the area of exposed soils at all times to an area whereby the
               contractor can practically cover all exposed soils with materials that will prevent
               the movement of soil (i.e. to a c-factor of 0.5) prior to any forecast rain event
               nominated and/or observed as likely to cause runoff from the site, regardless of
               whether those exposed areas flow to a sediment basin.
         b.    A sufficient supply of materials nominated as the contingency to cover exposed
               soils must be on site at all times, along with appropriate machinery and
               personnel for their deployment.
         c.    The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan shall also include a High Efficiency flow
               through sediment basin sized and operated to treat 90% of the flows and to act
               as final polishing and contingency to achieve 50mgTSS/L where cover of
               exposed soils fails. The flow through sediment basin must remain operational
               from commencement of construction until the site is stabilised for operational
               purposes, regardless of the area of exposed soil.
         d.    Chemicals used for dosing of the flow through sediment basin must be proven
               to not become bioavailable or harm the ecology within the receiving wetland.
   31.   The wetland habitat below the Q100 line (1% AEP) must be protected from any risk
         of water balance changes or chemical changes associated with construction activities
         and the conduct of the approved use. A detailed Wetland and Swamp Crayfish
         Habitat Protection Management Plan must be submitted with any operational works
         application to demonstrate the wetland habitat will be protected from construction
         activities and the conduct of the approved use. The Wetland and Swamp Crayfish
         Habitat Protection Management Plan must demonstrate:
         a. The water quality necessary for ongoing protection of the wetland;
         b. How the Erosion and Sediment Controls for the site will prevent release of any
            constructed generated sediments and chemicals to the wetland; and
         c. The ecological and biological requirements of the Swamp Crayfish and how these
            will be protected during construction and operation of the development.
   LANDSCAPE & ECOLOGY
         Landscaping & Vegetation Clearing
   32.   The development site must be landscaped. The works must be undertaken in
         accordance with an Operational Works approval and the Noosa Plan for that specific
         area and must include in particular:
         a.    Provide landscaping plans that provide detailed sections and plan of a 6.0
               metre landscaped buffer adjacent to the northern boundary to buffer the
               adjacent residential uses from the development.
         b.    Provide detail of the number of mature native trees (>150mm DBH) including
               species and canopy spread, proposed to be removed to facilitate all aspects of
               the development proposal.
