     e)    A stormwater quality treatment system. The stormwater treatment must generally be
           in accordance with the Stormwater Management Plan for Highway Service Centre
           Cooroy, project number 161968 by Covey Associates, dated October 2016 except
           where alteration to the inclusion of proprietary water quality treatment devices are
           necessary to achieve the following objectives as predicted in MUSIC modelling in
           accordance with the Water by Design MUSIC modelling guidelines.

                                  unmitigated development

           Where proprietary water quality treatment devices are included within the stormwater
           quality treatment strategy, evidence of a signed contract for a minimum period of 10
           years for maintenance of the proprietary stormwater quality treatment device must be
           provided to Council prior to commencement of use.

3.   CONCLUSION
Water Quality Targets as conditioned in the original approval are unlikely to be achievable with
regard to conventional best practice stormwater management practices. Therefore the condition
has been found to be unreasonable and cannot be practically applied to the development. The
water quality measures outlined by the applicant have been found to be satisfactory for this
development in the water supply catchment area.
