       • Biodiversity
       • Natural Hazard: Landslide & Flooding
       • Natural Hazard: Bushfire & Acid Sulfate Soils

       and Environmental Enhancement area on site and the proposed works are located in a similar area
       to the previously approved.




       A Fauna Management Plan, an Ecological Restoration Plan, Landscape Master Plan and a
       Bushfire Management Plan were approved as part of the subdivision of the Settler’s Cove land. An
       Environmental Management plan (EMP 1), was also approved, which sets out the requirement for
       development works with respect to these other management plans.

       In accordance with the Landscape Master Plan, koala and glossy black cockatoo feed trees will be
       incorporated within the proposed landscaping. These will be located primarily towards the
       perimeter to the Site.
