PO7 Development avoids or minimises
adverse impacts on coastal resources
and their values, to the maximum extent
reasonable.

 

AOQ7.1 Coastal protection work that is in the form of beach
nourishment uses methods of placement suitable for the
location that do not interfere with the long-term use of the
locality of, or natural values within or neighbouring, the
proposed placement site.

Na, Beach nourishment is not proposed.

The proposal is replacement of an existing revetment and
will match the revetment wall on either side of the works. As
such, the replacement of eth revetment wall will not change
the natural values of the area from the existing situation.

 

 

AND

AO7.2 Marine development is located and designed to na
expand on or redevelop existing marine infrastructure

unless it is demonstrated that it is not practicable to

co-locate the development with existing marine

infrastructure.

AND

AQ7.3 Marine development: na

(1) relies on a natural channel of a depth adequate for
the intended vessels, or
(2) where there are no feasible alternative locations for
the facility in the local area that do not require
dredging for navigation channel purposes:
(a) involves capital dredging for new navigation
channel purposes
(b) is located, designed and operated to minimise
the need for capital and subsequent
maintenance dredging for navigation channel
purposes.

AND

 

AO7.4 Development minimises dredging or the disposal
of material in coastal waters during key biological events
(such as fish aggregations or spawning) for species found
in the area.

AND

The footprint of the construction area is minimised as much
as practical for costs and therefore also meets the
requirement of minimising disposal (i.e. placement of rock).

A silt boom will be placed around the works footprint. This is
for the purpose of sediment control, but will also have a
secondary benefit of restricting access for fish and other
wildlife to the works area. The contractor can be instructed
to install the silt boom at a time and in a manner that will
reduce the number fish and other marine fauna caught
within the works footprint area.
