4.2        LAWFUL POINT OF DISCHARGE:

The lawful point of discharge is described in Section 3.4 of QUDM 2013. The two point test may be helpful in
assessing whether a lawful point of discharge exists at a particular location. The test consist of being satisfied
that:

      1. The location of the discharge is under the lawful control of the Local Government or other statutory
         authority from whom permission to discharge has been received. This will include park, drainage or road
         reserve, stormwater drainage easement.

      2. In discharging to that location, the discharge will not cause an actionable nuisance i.e. a nuisance for
         which the current or some future neighbouring proprietor may bring an action or claim for damages arising
         out of the nuisance), or environmental or property damage.

The proposed development will be connected to the existing Council Stormwater pit opposite the site in Toolar
Street.


5.0        STORMWATER QUALITY:

5.1        Water by Design Assessment:

The following factors have been identified as potential contributors which can adversely effect stormwater quality
draining from the site:-

           •     Silt and sediment erosion

           •     Gross Pollutants

           •     Nutrient runoff

The proposed development involves a land area less than the trigger value of 2500m2 for stormwater quality
measures as required in the Queensland State Planning Policy
