Applicant’s Response to Item 4: The 1997 Strategic Plan includes the site in the Rural Conservation
designation which details a number of objectives relevant to the proposal:

Objective 9.5.1 Protect the environmental values of land in the Rural Conservation designation and
ensure those values are not adversely impacted as a consequence of development on or adjacent to that
land.

The Strategic Plan details that land in this designation has significant constraints which generally preclude its
Suitability for house site areas as well as potentially featuring significant environmental values. The
protection of environmental values of the land is cited as the paramount factor in assessing planning
applications. The Strategic Plan specifically references the subject site noting that this land has significant
engineering constraints and some environmental value. Further subdivision is not envisaged and vegetation
bylaws are referenced as of means of maintaining existing vegetation.

It is acknowledged that the site is steeply sloping and as a result the applicant commissioned SCG
Engineers to provide a Slope Stability and Footings Report. This report included as part of this response
indicates that the engineering constraints of the site can be overcome subject to the incorporation of a
number of specific engineering and landscaping measures. These aspects can be adequately covered by
the impositions of relevant conditions.

With regard to the environmental values of the site the applicant engaged Chenoworth Environmental
Planning & Landscape Architecture to prepare an Ecological Assessment Report for the site including a
Vegetation Management Plan and Rehabilitation plan. (A copy of this report is attached) This report
indicates that any development of the site has the potential to impact on the values of the area however
measures should be undertaken to limit impacts on these values. Conditions requiring all works to accord
with the Vegetation and Rehabilitation Plan would address these aspects.

It is noted that the proposed dwelling is located to the rear of the site well away from the beach front area
and in line with the existing dwellings to the south. When compared to these residential properties the
location and extent of proposed dwelling is consistent with the ratio of built form to site area of the locality. As
illustrated by the aerial photograph below, dwellings along Seaview Terrace generally extend over the entire
upper level of the site.

Objective 9.5.4 Protect the environmental values which exist in the Eastern Beaches locality.

The Strategic Plan details that planning applications adjacent to land in the Open Space, Conservation
& Waterway Protection designation will require the submission of an Environmental Impact Statement,
modify or refuse proposals that adversely impact on the values of the area, set conditions that protect
the values or require land to be surrendered to the Crown for Open Space purposes.

The supporting reports included as part of this response indicate that appropriate measures can be
utilised to minimise the impacts of development on the environmental and engineering constraints of
the site. The applicant has also advised that he is seeking to maintain and enhance the current natural
setting and will be constructing a dwelling that seeks to utilise cutting edge sustainable technology.

The dwelling is located in line with existing dwellings with the bulk of the site retained in its natural
form.

The Strategic Pan provides a set of high order Strategic Principles and Aims for the previous Noosa Shire.
The mapping associated with the Rural Conservation designation highlighted the Environmental
Management Aims and outlined the importance of the natural resources of the Shire. Key aspects identified
include:

Sensitive approach to the interaction between the built and natural environment
Land buffers

Development not to impact on quality of water, air, soil

Maintain the distinct character of the coastal locality

Protect views and vistas

The proposed dwelling is considered to meet these Aims by:

Locating the dwelling at the top of the site and retaining most of the site in its natural state

e Locating the dwelling in line with existing dwellings to the south and curving the building along
the contour of the site

e The orientation provides an expansive area of natural vegetation to the beach and National
Park
Stormwater can be adequately dealt with on site
Vegetation clearing and rehabilitation programs will ensure soil erosion is minimised
The dwelling has been designed by award winning international architects NR architects. The
dwelling steps down the site and incorporates a flat roof that is to be landscaped to minimise its
visual impact on the surrounds whilst retaining views for properties to the west.

« The dwelling is of a curved linear appearance that curves along the site with decks and
extensive articulation.

The proposal is therefore considered to fulfill the higher order objectives and aims of the Strategic Plan. The
zoning maps of the superseded scheme include the site in the Non Urban zone. The Non Urban zone is
detailed as including land that is in close proximity to urban serves where that land is considered to be
unsuitable for urban development due to aspects such as steep slopes, conditions giving rise to foundation
difficulties and the like. Dwellings area identified as impact assessable development. It is noted that
dwellings are not detailed as inconsistent uses.

The applicant has demonstrated that the site can be developed for a dwelling and can overcome the

environmental constraints such as slope of the site. The proposal is therefore consistent with the intent of
the zone.

With regard to the previously detailed tennis court, this facility has been removed and the ‘shack’ has been
replaced with an open Pavilion.

With regard to setbacks the building has provided setback in accordance with section 8.10 of the Schedule
to the Planning Scheme. The Ecological Assessment Report provided as part of this response further
details that the site does not form a critical link as part of a vegetated corridor, although it is currently
continuous with the vegetation of Noosa National Park and surrounds.

@ Page4

Please note that the development plans included in the Ecological Assessment Report indicate a deck to the
northem side boundary. This deck has been reduced with the NR Architect Plans detailing a clear 3.0 metre
setback to the northem boundary.

 

 

 

 

 

Applicant’s Response to Item 5: The applicant engaged Chenoworth Environmental to prepare an
Ecological Assessment Report for the site. This report includes a Vegetation Management Plan and
Rehabilitation Plan for the proposal. The Vegetation Management Plan details a range of objectives and
strategies for the development including:

Restrict clearing

Carry out clearing in a sequential manner

Minimise disturbance to protected and retained vegetation

Retain, protect and enhance areas of native vegetation and revegetate disturbed areas
Maximise the utilisation of existing plants and habitat elements

Reduce erosion

The applicant engaged SCG Engineers to prepare a Slope Stability and Footings Report. The Report
details that the lot in its current state is sable and would support the residential construction as proposed.
Vibratory equipment for driving piles is not advised with any removal of existing vegetation to be reinstated
with deep rooted native vegetation.

 

équirements"!

  

 

 

Applicant’s Response to Item 6: The ‘shack’ component of the application has now been deleted and this
plan is not required as the Pavilion is a landscape feature with no facilities.

 

 

 

 

 

Applicant’s Response to Item 7: SCG Engineers have provided a stormwater drainage plan for the
proposed dwelling.

The applicant company considers that it has now responded to Council's request for information. Would you
please provide us with a list of adjoining owners so that we may commence public notification? Please
contact our Sunshine Coast office if you require any further information and/or clarification.

Yours faithfully

SOIL TEST, SLOPE STABILITY & FOOTING REPORT — Lot 1 Seaview Terrace,
Sunshine Beach

1.0 COMMISSION :

SCG Consulting Engineers was commissioned to perform a site investigation for the
purpose of determining parameters required for foundation design for current
proposals within the allotment. An assessment of slope stability within the site to
support the proposed development is also to be included.

The allotment is located within the previous Noosa Shire Council designated sand
dune problem area.

2.0 TESTING PROGRAMME:

The fieldwork for this investigation was performed on 3/04/2007. 4 (No.) Boreholes
were excavated within the allotment. 3 (No.) boreholes were excavated with hand
augers and the fourth with a Jacro 200 Mounted 4WD Drill Rig. Disturbed samples
were collected and classified on site in accordance with Table A1 of AS 1726 - 1993
“Guide to the Description, Identification and Classification of Soils” These
classifications are shown on the attached logs.

The resistance of the soils encountered were tested with an approved 9kg Perth
Sand Penetrometer and the results recorded at the appropriate levels on the
attached log sections.

3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION

The allotment is registered as Lot 1 RP197117 Seaview Terrace and is located on
the end of a service easement extending off the northern end of Seaview Terrace
Sunshine Beach.

The allotment slopes up down from its access point in a north easterly direction
towards the beach frontage at grades of approximately 1 in 3.5 to 1 in 2.0 (16° -
20°).

The grade flattens at the north eastern corner of the allotment where it approaches
towards the rear of the primary dune facing the beach.

4.0 MORPHOLOGY

The allotment is situated within a massive aeolian sand bed of Quaternary age. As a general
observation dunal horizons such as these are stable where;

- The natural slope is tess than the angle of repose for sand (32°)
- Vegetation exists to protect from wind generated scour
: The drainage pattern is such that there is no risk of fluvial scour.

These horizons are unstable during and after any major tectonic event (earthquake) and can become
unstable when aeolian or fluvial scour erode slopes to angles greater than 30°, particularly when
coincident with vegetation removal.

5.0 FINDINGS
The soil profiles encountered are shown on the attached log sections.
No water table was encountered during our testing program.

We have classified the site in accordance with Section 2 of the Residential Slabs and Footings Code
(AS2870-1996) code as Glass P due to the uncontrolled fill encountered, adjacent the access point to
the allotment. However a less severe classification of Ciass S could be adopted where the natural soils
occur away from the filled area.

At the entrance to the allotment we encountered uncontrolled fill 900mm in depth.

6.0 SLOPE STABILITY:

The sloping sand profiles in these sand dune areas typically have a safety factor against sliding of 1
(one) where the slope is 32° and where the consistency of the sands is at least medium dense. A slope
angle of 27° would produce a safety factor of 1.2 against sliding, provided the consistency of the sands
is at least medium dense. The factor of safety is enhanced in the presence of ground covering
vegetation.

Where the consistency of the sand is loose, a lesser angle of 28° would provide safety factor of 1 (one)
against sliding.

The factor of safety is enhanced in the presence of ground covering vegetation.

The survey data supplied indicates the slope within the allotment generally sits at an angle of between
16° - 26°.

Borehole and DCP results indicate the sands are generally loose to a depth of around 2000mm from
where they increase in density to Medium Dense. This suggests the slope stability within the upper
profile of the allotment in the steeper grades in above one. The presence of vegetation is increasing
stability of the slope.

7.0 | RECOMMENDATIONS: a

7.1 Bearing Loads

Any proposed structural loads should be founded into the NATURAL MEDIUM DENSE SAND profiles :

where a safe bearing capacity of 100kN/m? can be expected. Where this layer is deep or covered by fill ‘

we recommend the foundations be supported on normal bored, grout injected or steel screw piers 4
4
)

founded into medium dense sand profiles or deeper as required to achieve the loads required. Non 4
vibratory techniques must be adopted for all work, including pier installation on the site. :

SCG Consulting Engineers 2 SCG Ref: 19064(S) .

Page 20

All piers must be designed for lateral stability and their depth will be governed by their ability to achieve
the loads nominated on the associated structural plans.

7.1.1 Deep Foundations :
For cast in-situ piers founded into the NATURAL MEDIUM DENSE SAND, assuming a safety factor of

2.5 the following bearing capacities can be used as a design guide: The footing masses have not been
considered.

 

 

 

 

 

450mm Diameter Piers 600mm Diameter Piers
Depth * (m) End Side friction Total safe End Side Total safe
bearing (kPa) capacity of bearing friction capacity of
(kPa) pier (KN) (kPa) (kPa) pier (KN)
3.0 474 8.3 98 497 8.3 172
40 608 10.3 141 631 10.3 236

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

* Piers excavated in the sandy soils will collapse if the walls are not supported. Grout replacement
techniques must be used to achieve the capacities indicated above.

Steel screw piers are to be designed by a specialist contractor.

7.2 Earth pressures.

Lateral Earth pressures can be estimated from the equation: P=0.5y HK

Where
ty x 16 KN/m3
H = height m
K selected from the table below.
Earth pressure coefficients for vertical wall designs and friction angle of 32° degrees are as follows;

 

 

 

 

 

 

Angie of backfill (degrees) Ka (active) Ko (at rest) Kp (passive)
0 0.294 0.482 3.25
5 0.310 0.508
10 0.328 0.538

 

 

 

 

Active earth pressures Ka are generated where the wall allows some movement away from the backfill
and the soil gains internal strength in this process. At rest earth pressures Ko are produced where walls
allow very little movement (such as well braced walls not capable of allowing movement). Kp is a
passive earth pressure coefficient.

7.3 Construction:
7.3.1 Excavations

All excavations both temporary and permanent must be adequately retained to prevent the occurrence
of land slip. Where a retaining wail is required, an exposed cut batter of 1 to 2 (vertical to horizontal)
taken from the base of any foundation can be excavated. These earthworks must incorporate shallow
surface spoon drains at the base and along the high side of the cut. Drains must have an efficient
outflow down-slope and clear of the construction area and should utilise absorption as a means of
disposal to minimise the risk of surface scour. Any exposed face should also be protected against the
potential for stormwater erosion.

All earthworks must ensure the stability of neighbouring structures is maintained through not
undermining foundations that support them. This is achieved through the restriction of any earthworks
to above a critical depth fine that radiates downwards at an angle of 1 in 2 (vertical to horizontal) from
the base of the foundation/structure to be protected.

pee

SCG Consulting Engineers 3 SCG Ref: 19064(S}

Page 21

From the proposed building plans and survey information the construction of the garage floor level will
require a cut in the order of 2.6 - 3m below the existing surface level adjacent the southern boundary.
For this to be achieved a cantilevered or tied cantilevered retaining wall must be installed. We
recommend that either augered secant or contiguous concrete pile systems be used to achieve this.
The use of driven sheet piling is not recommended in this area. Pre-Augered and pushed in sheet piles
would be an acceptable alternative.

The design of the retaining system is to be by a specialist contractor and must consider surcharge
loading from sloping embankments above the structures.

Vegetation removal should be minimised. As soon as possible after construction, dense, deep rooted
native vegetation cover should be propagated on any exposed surface in order to stimulate and
improve the binding properties of the natural vegetation.

7.4 Stormwater

All stormwater collected within the allotment must be disposed of in a manner that does not
compromise the stability of the site. Where possible roof drainage must be directed to and disposed of
via the access easement that serves the allotment. All other stormwater including surface runoff must
be collected via approved means and stored in tanks for re-use. Overflow from the tanks should be via
infiltration pits to minimise surface flows and scour. We have compiled a stormwater drainage plan
detailing these proposals and attached a copy to this report (Drawing No. 19064-SW1).

8.0 CONCLUSIONS:
Based upon our findings and recommendations we believe the allotment in its current state is stable
and would support the residential construction within the scope of the current proposals and AS 2870-

1996.

The use of vibrating earthwork equipment used for driving piles is not advised within the allotment. Mini
excavators or similar excavation equipment would be acceptable for use throughout construction.

Any removal of existing vegetation should be followed by reinstatement of deep rooted native
vegetation common to the area.

Measures to prevent sand migration during construction must be implemented. These must protect
against wind blown and fluid (runoff) migration of the sands.

Foundations must be designed in accordance with AS2870-1996 and accepted engineering theory.

9.0 DOCUMENTATION:

In preparation of this report we have considered architectural and survey information contained within
the proposed architectural plans as provided by Noel Robinson Architects and a site survey plan by Lau
Surveys (No 6611-DT]).

Level 1 of AS 3798-1996 had been presented.

Uncontrolled Fill - Man placed soil (overlying the natural soils) which is not adequate to support a
normally loaded footing or floor slab.

Unexcavatable Rock - Strong material including shaley material and strongly cemented sand or gravel
that does not soften in water or collapse under the combination of loading and wetting. Material that
cannot readily be excavated by a backhoe may be taken to be rock.

Excavatable Rock - A rock-like material which does not shrink or swell with changes in soil moisture,
but is readily excavatable with a conventional backhoe.

Natural (Strata) ~ Refers to soil that is neither fill or imported material but one that is in its original
undisturbed state and position.

Gravel - Coarse soil particles, larger than sand size, but less than 60mm in diameter.

Boulders - Rocks larger than 600mm in diameter.

Chenoweth Environmental Planning and Landscape Architecture (Chenoweth EPLA) was
engaged by Noel Robinson Architects on behalf of Adrian Slinger to undertake an
ecological assessment of the land located at 71 Seaview Terrace, Sunshine Beach. The site
is described as Lot 1 on RP197117 (Figure 1).

A field assessment was conducted by qualified ecologists from Chenoweth EPLA on 29
January 2009.

The site is situated on a steep sandy hill adjacent to Sunshine Beach and Noosa National
Park. The site is covered with low mid-dense vegetation. The proposed development is
predominantly situated over the western portion of the site. The development footprint
includes the main dwelling, a beach shade pavilion which will be connected with a
sculpture garden and environmental walk (Appendix A).

2.0 REVIEW OF EXISTING FLORA/FAUNA INVENTORIES

2.1 EPBC Protected Matters Search
The Commonwealth’s Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999

(EPBC) aims to protect seven listed ‘matters of national significance’ which include, but is
not limited to, threatened species of plants and threatened ecological communities. A
referral to the Environment Minister is required when a person proposes to undertake an
‘action’ that they believe will have a significant impact on one or more of these ‘matters of
national significance’.

The Commonwealth’s Department of Environment and Heritage responsible for
administering the Act provide a web-based search engine for identifying ‘matters of
national significance’.

An EPBC Act Protected Matters Search extending 1.5km from the centre of the Site
identified the Great Sandy Strait as a Wetland of International Significance that may be
affected and the potential for 34 threatened flora and fauna species to occur. A summary

of their habitat requirements and likelihood of their occurrence onsite is presented in Table
1.

BIRDS

 

Cyciopsitta diophthalma coxeni

Coxen's Fig-Parrot

E

Its preferred habitat was probably lowland
dry and subtropical rainforest, especially in
alluvial areas, however little of this remains.
Recent records are from dry or cool
subtropical rainforest from sea level to
approximately 900m. Birds also use thin
strips of gallery rainforest; littoral rainforest
and coastal eucalypt/melaleuca forest where
fig densities are high (e.g. near Bundaberg).
The species has been reported visiting
isolated fruiting trees in gardens and
cultivated farmlands (Environmental
Protection Agency, 2008),

 

Erythrotriorchis radiatus

Red Goshawk

The red goshawk has an enormous home
range covering between 50 and 220 square
kilometres. It prefers a mix of vegetation
types with its habitat including tall open
forest, woodland, lightly treed savannah and
the edge of rainforest (Environmental
Protection Agency, 2008).

 

Anthochaera phrygia

Regent honeyeater

Regent Honeyeaters occur mainty in dry box
ironbark open-forest and woodland areas
inland of the Great Dividing Range,
particularly favouring those on the wettest,
most fertile soils, such as along creek flats
and broad river valleys. They spend much of
their time feeding on the nectar from
eucalypts such as the Mugga Ironbark,
White Box and Yellow Box, and Blakeley's
Red Gum on which they are reliant. Listed
as nationally endangered, the total known
population of Regent Honeyeaters is
estimated at between 800 and 2000
(DEWHA, 2007)

associated with fragments of vine forest and
thickets that are periodically water-stressed
and coastal scrubs. The species may also
be found in low thickets or woodlands,
acacia thickets, Lantana camara patches (in
association with these vegetation types) and
wetter subtropical rainforest in NSW. BBBQ

2.2 STATE INVESTIGATIONS / INVENTORIES

2.2.1 Regional Ecosystem Mapping

2.2.1.1 Background

The Vegetation Management Act 1999 (VMA) defines a “Regional Ecosystems” as a
vegetation community that is consistently associated with a particular combination of
geology, landform and soil. The VMA defines “Remnant Regional Ecosystems” as the
vegetation forming the predominant canopy:

(a) Covering more than 50% of the undisturbed predominant canopy;

(b) Averaging more than 70% of the vegetation’s undisturbed height; and

(c) Composed of species characteristic of the vegetation’s undisturbed predominant

canopy.

Under the VMA, three levels of conservation status are defined for Regional Ecosystems:

2.2.3 Erosion Prone Areas

Under the State Coastal Management Plan (2001) policy 2.2.2 Erosion prone areas are
defined as:

areas that are vulnerable to erosion or encroachment from tidal waters within a 50
year planning cycle. These areas provide a buffer between land uses and the coast
to allow the natural fluctuations of the coast to occur without the need for
intervention to protect human life and property.

They are important in an ecological context as:

Fluctuations in the position of the coastline and periodic inundation of some
coastal areas are part of the natural processes of the coast.

Development in a coastal setting can pose threats to this natural process and result in
adverse impacts on coastal resources (State Coastal Management Plan, 2001). The Erosion
Prone Areas of the site are shown in Figure 2.

The Coastal State Management Policy 2.2.2 states that:

To the extent practicable, erosion prone areas are to remain undeveloped apart
from acceptable temporary or relocatable structures for safety and recreational
purposes. Where building works and activities have been undertaken within an
erosion prone area, future use should not be at a greater intensity than the existing
level. Redevelopment of these areas or an increase in intensity may only occur in
circumstances where it can be clearly demonstrated that it would not compromise
coastal management outcomes and principles.

In areas under constant threat of erosion, a strategy of retreat from erosion prone
areas is the preferred option. However, where an area has been developed to a
scale and intensity that the retreat option is not achievable, property protection
works may be needed to defend land uses and infrastructure from coastal
processes. In such circumstances, any further building or infrastructure including
extensions to existing buildings or the location of services (including water, power
and sewerage), should not extend any further seaward than the existing building
alignment for the neighbouring properties. For developed areas, structural
engineering and stabilisation works will be initiated only as a last resort where
erosion presents an immediate threat to public safety or property and
infrastructure that is not expendable. The siting, design and materials used for
works will not cause any significant adverse impacts on the coastal resources of the
location nor interrupt the natural cycles of erosion and accretion of beaches.

2.2.4 Referrable Areas Mapping

The Integrated Planning Regulation 1998 defines a wetland as “an area shown as a
wetland on ‘Map of referable wetlands’, a document approved by the chief executive
‘(environment)’.

Development triggers for wetlands as listed in Schedule 2 of the Integrated Planning
Regulation 1998 include:

e Reconfiguring a lot if -
© any part of the lot is situated in, or within 100m of, a wetland; and
0 the reconfiguration results in more than 10 lots being created, or any
lot resulting from the reconfiguring is less than Sha.
© Material change of use, other than for a domestic activity, if any part of the lot is
situated in, or within 100m of, a wetland

The EPA (2009) has mapped the site as almost entirely containing a referrable wetland.
(Appendix C). The referable wetland is surrounded.-by a 100m buffer.

With regard to the Regional Ecosystems mapped on site by the Queensland Herbarium’
CEPA, 2003), the Regional Ecosystem Description Database (REDD) (EPA, 2004) notes
the RE 12.2.5 is “Corymbia spp., Banksia integrifolia, Callitris columellaris, Acacia spp.
open forest to low closed forest on beach ridges usually in southern half of bioregion” and
RE 12.2.15 is described as “Swamps with Baumea spp., Juncus spp. and Lepironia
articulata”.

2.3 LOCAL INVESTIGATIONS |
2.3.1 Noosa Planning Scheme
Under the Noosa Plan (2008) the site is mapped on:

e Eastern Beaches Zone Map as part rural settlement and part open space protection
zone;

e Eastern Beaches Biodiversity Overlay OM4.1. The site is partially mapped as
“Environmental Enhancement Zone”. The specific outcome for areas mapped as
“Environmental Enhancement vegetation” is:

Vegetation of local origin on premises identified as Environmental Enhancement 12
is protected from the impacts of development, edge effects, and fragmentation by
being maintained in manageable and viable configurations; OR Interference with
vegetation on land committed for development only occurs where—

a. no other suitable cleared or partially cleared area is available on the

premises; and

 

Chenoweth EPLA Seaview_Ecology_Report_Vers2_4-3-09 Mar ‘09

Seaview Terrace, Ecology Report

b. the development minimises the total footprint within which all activities,
buildings, structures, driveways and other works are contained.

A waterway crosses the north-east corner of the site. The northern site boundary
abuts areas mapped as “Koala Habitat” and “Riparian Buffer Zone”.

Eastern Beaches Natural Resources Overlay OM4.5. The site is mapped as entirely
within the “Coastal Protection Area”. Under the Natural Resources Code the
overall outcomes for development in Coastal Protection Areas are that,
development —

i, does not adversely impact upon natural coastal processes; and

ii. is designed and sited to protect the natural beach or riverside

The site is shown on the Noosa Plan Schedule 5 Map 5 — Erosion Prone Areas. the
extent of Erosion Prone Areas is defined by the following:

The seaward boundary of the erosion prone area for all local authority area/s to
which this plan relates shall be defined by the seaward limit of Queens land waters;
On land adjacent to coastal waters the landward boundary of the erosion prone
area shall be defined as :

iv. a line measured 40 metres landward of the plan position of the mean
high water springs (MHWS ) tide level except where approved
revetments exist, in which case the line is measured 10 metres landward
of the upper seaward edge of the revetment, irrespective of the presence
of outcropping bedrock; or

v. a line located by the linear distance (in metres ) specified on this plan
measured, unless specified otherwise, inland from:

(a) _ the seaward toe of the frontal dune. (The seaward toe of the
frontal dune is normally

(b) approximated on aerial photography by the seaward limit of
terrestrial vegetation); or

(c) astraight line drawn across the mouth of a waterway between
the alignment of the seaward toe of the frontal dune on either
side of the mouth. or

vi. the plan position of Highest Astronomical Tide (HAT); whichever —
provides the greater erosion prone area width except:

(a) _ where the linear distance specified on this plan is less than 40
metres, in which case note (2)(i) does not apply, however
notes (2)(ti) and (2)(iii) do apply;

(b) where outcropping bedrock is present and no approved
revetments exist, in which case the line is defined as being
coincident with the most seaward bedrock outcrop within
these defined boundaries but not seaward of the line of HAT;

(c) in approved canals in which case the line of HAT applies ,
irrespective of the presence of approved revetments or
outcropping bedrock.

3. Erosion prone areas defined in accordance with the above are deemed to exist
throughout all the local authority area/s to which this plan relates, irrespective of
whether the entire local authority area is depicted on erosion prone area plans for
the local authority.

4, Coastal waters, as referred to in note (2), are defined to be Queens land waters to

3.0 METHODS

3.1 FLORA

The site was traversed by two ecologists on 29 January 2009. All species encountered were
recorded. Queensland Herbarium methodology was followed (using site form F — Regional
Ecosystem Code) to assess the Regional Ecosystem on site.

3.2 FAUNA
A diurnal fauna search was undertaken by two ecologists in conjunction with the flora

inventory. Active herpetological searching, bird watching, animal signs (tracks, scats and
diggings) and habitat analysis were undertaken. As the results of this study are limited to
diurnal searching, habitat modeling using wildnet records has been included below to
overcome this limitation.

4.0 RESULTS

4.1 FLORA

4441 Vegetation Assemblages

The vegetation on site was broadly consistent with the heterogeneous Regional Ecosystems
12.2.5 and 12.2.15. The site investigation provided an opportunity to ‘split’ these
heterogeneous units and define their individual extents at a property based scale.
Vegetation on site was generally low trees and shrubs including Pink Bloodwood
(Corymbia intermedia), Coastal She-oak (Allocasuarina littoralis), Beach Acronychia
(Acronychia imperforata), Coastal Banksia (Banksia integrifolia var. integrifolia), Hickory
Wattle (Acacia disparrima), Maiden’s Wattle (Acacia maidenii) and Midyim
(Austromyrtus dulcis) (See Site Form F — Appendix D). This vegetation assemblage is
consistent with RE 12.2.5. Towards the eastern corner of the site and on the edges of the
creek, vegetation was dominated by sedges, ferns and heath. This area is associated with a
creek and is consistent with RE 12.2.15. The edge of this creek was approximately defined
on site using hand held GPS (See Figure 3).

A full species list is included as Appendix E.

4.1.2 Weeds

The north western portion of the site which is currently clear currently dominated by exotic
species including Siratro (Macroptilium atropurpureum) and Glory Lily (Gloriosa
superba).The south eastern portion of the site supported relatively low weed coverage. The
most commonly encountered weed on site was Creeping Asparagus (Asparagus
aethiopicus). The weed species identified on site are listed below in Table 4 along with the
listing under the Land Protection (and Stock Route Management) Act 2002. A land owner

must take reasonable steps to keep their land free of Class 2 pests. Landholders with land
adjacent to environmentally significant areas are required to control Class 3 pests (DPI,
2008). The weed status under the Noosa Council Pest Management Plan (2002-2004) is
also listed along with the control priority ranking. Weed control across the site is detailed

in the rehabilitation plan (Appendix H).

A list of the bird species recorded on site is presented in Table 5. All species recorded

during the site visit are listed as common. Also observed on site was a kingfisher nest;
however the bird was not observed during the site assessment. It is likely that the species
was either a Forest Kingfisher or a Sacred Kingfisher both of which are listed as common
under the NCA.

The Wildnet database search (Appendix F) returned many records of bird species that have
been recorded in locale and are too extensive to list below. Table 2 presents the significant
bird species returned by this data search and models the likelihood of these species
occurring on site, given their habitat preferences.

4.2.2 Mammals
No mammals were directly observed on site. It was inferred from scat analysis and Wildnet

Database search results that the Swamp Wallaby (Wallabia bicolor) is \ikely to utilise the
site. It is also inferred from Wildnet Database Search and diggings observed on site in
termite mounds that it is likely that the Short-beaked Echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus)
also utilises the site.

Wildnet Database search results have been used to model the potential for a wider variety
of species to occur on the site (Table 6).

4.2.3 Amphibians

The north eastern portion of the site encompasses part of the site consistent with Regional
Ecosystem 12.2.15 which could provide habitat for some species of amphibian. No frogs
were recorded during the survey, but this may be attributed to the time and prevailing
weather conditions during the site inspection. Wildnet database search results have been
used to evaluate the potential for species listed in the search to occur on site or within the
immediate vicinity (given habitats present) and are indicated in Table 7.

4.3 Habitat Values and Links

The site provides a number of habitat niches for a variety of faunal groups. The habitat
potential is improved by the proximity of the Noosa National Park (abutting the northern
site boundary). The site is currently part of a tract of vegetation continuous with Noosa °
National Park and a band of vegetation along the Sunshine beach frontage. It is likely the"
site is currently acting as a buffér between the Residential aréa of Sunshine Beach and the
National Park.

The site does not form a critical link as part of a vegetated corridor, although it is currently
continuous with the vegetation of Noosa National Park and surrounds.

5.0 SITE ANALYSIS

Site investigations confirmed that most of the lot supports remnant regional ecosystems.
Minor areas of clearing are located at the entry to the site off Seaview Terrace and a small
unmappable area on its north-eastern edge, which appears to be associated with historical
clearing. The site primarily supports regional ecosystem 12.2.5, but the northeast corner
and eastern alignment supports vegetation associated with a creek (RE 12.2.15). The
northern boundary of the site aligns integral vegetation of the Noosa National Park.

 

Figure 4 illustrates the location of the proposed dwelling over a current aerial photograph
of the site and surrounds. Also illustrated on this figure is the location of the boundary
‘between non-urban and open space as per the schedule to the Superseded Planning.
Scheme (1997) (as shown in DDO2. 01) and the approximate coastal setback of adjacent
nearby dwellings,. which is extended into the subject site. As evident in this figure, the
proposed dwelling is entirely located inside these boundaries as is the proposed beach
shade pavilion. Furthermore the proposed dwelling is setback approximately 45.6m from
the edge of vegetation associated with the adjacent waterway.

The proposed dwelling will affect existing vegetation; however, its location is consistent
‘with the. non-urban area (which under the superseded scheme coincides with the beach

protection line (Martoo Consulting) and the existing setbacks of nearby dwellings. The
proposed Beach Shade Pavilion also extends beyond these setbacks, but is located further
from the edge of the adjacent watercourse.

A tennis court was previously proposed to extend beyond the setbacks and close to the
adjacent watercourse. This would have been likely to have a significant impact on existing
vegetation, not only due to its size, but the associated earthworks necessary to
accommodate it in this steep location. Therefore the removal of this structure from the site
plan has lowered the potential adverse impacts of the development. The beach shade

. pavilion has also been reduced in scale and hence potential impacts on existing vegetation
in this area have also been reduced.

Given the vegetated nature of the site, its close proximity to Noosa National Park, and
presence of a vegetated waterway any development on the site can potential affect these
values. Irrespective of the ultimate development footprint measures should be taken to
limit impacts on these values. Specifically, the construction footprint should be restricted
and governed by a Vegetation Management Plan. Similarly any disturbance on site should
be immediately restored using local native species. The use of native species would ideally
extend to landscapes in order to limit the potential for exotic species to invade the
neighbouring National Park. Appendix G includes a Vegetation Management Plan that
defines performance measures aimed at limiting the overall construction footprint and:
Appendix H identifies appropriate revegetation requirements and techniques.

Seaview Terrace Vegetation Management Plan

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This Vegetation Management Plan has been prepared in response to the Environmental
Protection Agency Information Request 323312 dated 21 April 2008.

The purpose of this plan is to outline the extent of vegetation clearing onsite including any
referable wetland clearing and to outline the proposed protective measures for vegetation
to be retained. This plan is to govern the vegetation clearing allowed on site and restrict the
' overall clearing that occurs. : : t

The site is virtually entirely wooded, supporting low (10-15m) dense dunal vegetation
corresponding with Regional Ecosystem (RE) 12.2.5. Given the close proximity to the
beach, much of the vegetation is wind sheared and consequently dense canopies interlock.

 

Given these attributes, surveying of individual trees is a difficult task that would inevitably
result in the unnecessary clearing of -vegetation. Therefore, rather than identifying the :,
welfare of individual trees, this Vegetation Management Plan (VMP) identifies the
measures necessary to maximise retention of all vegetation (trees, shrubs and
groundcovers) by minimising the overall construction footprint.

The VMP acknowledges that the final development footprint may vary from the original
architectural plans and therefore includes flexibility to accommodate potential future
changes. Based on architectural plans (DD02.01 Rev B) a number of zones have been
identified that require separate consideration. Figure A illustrates these zones and specific
requirements for each zone are discussed in the following section.

2.0 VEGETATION MANAGEMENT PLAN

2.1 Issues

A number of issues related to the clearing of vegetation on site are listed below. The VMP
aims to manage these issues.

= Clearing of remnant vegetation is restricted to areas inside the construction

footprint;,
: = Construction activities can displace and harm on-site vegetation and trees;
Re . = The development will result in the loss of vegetation from the building footprint
and immediate surrounds, as well as from areas covered by roads and some
pathways;

s Earthworks which are required to create the building platforms, roads and other
infrastructure will disturb the site;

Seaview Terrace Vegetation Management Plan

= Cleared vegetation must be disposed of in a way that does not spread weed
propagules and seeds;

=" Maintaining local genetic stock and habitat features;

= Areas disturbed through earthworks will be revegetated as soon as possible to
minimise erosion;

* Sealed surfaces can limit water and nutrient flow to tree roots;

° . = Clearing of vegetation on steep sandy sites can result in increased erosion and

— runoff.
ey 2.2 Objectives ne
ote “In order to manage the issues identified in section 2.1, the following objectives were \
. .

defined: ‘ . f

= To restrict clearing to within the area allowed under the vegetation clearing
permit;

® Carry out clearing in a sequential manner to Prevent damage to surrounding
retained vegetation;

" To minimise disturbance to protected and retained vegetation; '

= To retain, protect and enhance areas of native vegetation and to revegetate and
landscape areas disturbed;

= To maximise the utilization of existing plants and habitat elements within

revegetation areas;

To reduce erosion

 

‘ 2.3 Strategies

To manage the issues associated with vegetation clearing and to fulfill the objectives of
this plan, the following specific requirements for each zone are outlined in Table 1.

table 1: Specific Requirements

outer clearing limits.

= Where branches external to
the 2m construction buffer
intrude this zone and
conflict with construction
activities they may be
pruned using the 3-cut
method (see Attachment 1)

= Engage the services of a
Fauna/spotter catcher
during clearing

Disposal of vegetation

= Cleared vegetation is not to
be pushed into areas of
retained vegetation.

® Vegetation can be mulched : | :

and stored onsite to be
used in landscaping and
rehabilitation. Stockpiles
are to be loose heaps less
than 1000 cubic meters,
less than 2.5m high with
heaps separated by a
minimum of 10m.

Site stabilisation

= Areas from which
vegetation has been
cleared are to be stabilised
following clearing. This
may include the application
of site generated mulch to a

 

depth of 100mm.
Zone B Define Limits of Vegetation outside of 2m
This zone includes the disturbance construction buffer is not

Beach shade pavilion plus a
maximum 2m construction
buffer.

= The location of a Beach
Shade Pavilion is to be
determined and pegged in
consultation with the project
ecologist prior to detailed
design and subsequent
construction. The aim will
be to locate a site that will
result in limited impact on
existing vegetation.

be carried in by foot, or
alternatively craned in.

Clearing of vegetation

® The clearing of vegetation
and subsequent
construction of the path is
to be done by hand.

 

 

Zone D

Balance of site which
predominantly includes
remnant vegetation.

 

No Clearing of vegetation

® Unless vegetation poses a
hazard or is an exotic
species, trees, shrubs and
ground covers are not be
cleared or pruned in Zone
E.

Weed Control

= Weeds are to be removed
by hand or with a
Glyphosate product applied
at label rates.

 

Vegetation in this zone is not
disturbed except for where it
poses a specific hazard or is
an exotic species.

Removed vegetation is
replaced as per the
Rehabilitation Plan

 

 

3.0 RESPONSIBILITIES

The contractor is responsible for all aspects of this VMP. Specialist advice should be
sought from the project ecologist where required or where there is a need to vary from this

plan.

Seaview Terrace Rehabilitation Plan 2

1.0 GENERAL

 

‘Seaveiw Terrace, Sunshine Beach (Lot 1 on RPI97117).

1.1 INTRODUCTION

This Rehabilitation Plan has been prepared in partial response to point 4.3 and 5.1 of
the Sunshine Coast Regional Council Information Request (Ref 2008/169) and in
response to dot point 4 of ‘Biodiversity, Protected Areas and Coastal Wetlands’ of the
Environmental Protection Agency Information Request (Ref 323312). This plan
provides details on the rehabilitation of portions of the development site located at 71 .
The plan has been developed specifically to allow for rapid replacement of vegetation
cleared as a result of development. Revegetation will be targeted towards rapid
establishment of canopy elements in particular to reduce erosion.

1.2 RESPONSIBILITIES AND TIMING

All rehabilitation works are to be undertaken by qualified, experienced bush
regenerators. All contract staff are to undertake a site induction prior to the
commencement of rehabilitation works to familiarise visitors with the sites ecological
values and rehabilitation strategies.

Any major proposed changes to the Rehabilitation Plan, including changes to the
planting schedule or scheduled species, are to be approved by the Sunshine Coast
Regional Council and the Environmental Protection Agency.

2.2 REHABILITATION STRATEGY

Prior to identifying appropriate rehabilitation methods it is important to understand
existing site conditions and opportunities.

The vegetation on site was broadly consistent with the heterogeneous Regional
Ecosystems 12.2.5 and 12.2.15. Vegetation on site was generally low trees and shrubs
including Pink Bloodwood (Corymbia intermedia), Coastal She-oak (Allocasuarina
littoralis), Beach Acronychia (Acronychia imperforata), Coastal Banksia (Banksia :
integrifolia var. integrifolia), Hickory Wattle (Acacia disparrima), Maidens Wattle
(Acacia maidenii) and Midyim (Austromyrtus dulcis) (See Site Form. F — Appendix
B). This vegetation assemblage is consistent with RE 12.2.5. Towards the eastern
corner of the site and on the edges of the creek, vegetation was dominated by sedges,
ferns and heath. This area is associated with a creek and is consistent with RE 12.2.15.

The north western portion of the site which is currently clear currently dominated by
exotic species including Siratro (Macroptilium atropurpureum) and Glory Lily
(Gloriosa superba).The south eastern portion of the site supported relatively low
weed coverage. The most commonly encountered weed on site was Creeping
Asparagus (Asparagus aethiopicus). The weed species identified on site are listed in
Table 4 of the Ecological Report Section 4.1.2 along with the listing under the Land
Protection (and Stock Route Management) Act 2002. A land owner must take
reasonable steps to keep their land free of Class 2 pests. Landholders with land
adjacent to environmentally significant areas are required to control Class 3 pests
(DPI, 2008). The weed status under the Noosa Council Pest Management Plan (2002-
2004) is also listed along with the control priority ranking. ,

2.3 REHABILITATION TECHNIQUES

Plant species, densities and quantities for the area have been broadly based on
recommendations in Noosa Planning Scheme Policy 03 for the Coastal Beachfront
Areas.

Recommendations regarding the size of planting stock, mulch specifications and any
other necessary treatments, such as weed control, are detailed in~ Table 2
‘Rehabilitation Methodology’. Specific weed control strategies and methods are
outlined in Section 2.6: Weed Management.

A recommended planting schedule (showing maximum numbers of plants required) is
given in Table 3.

Weed Control Weeds listed under Noosa Counci! Pest Management Plan (2001-2004) are listed in
_ Tablé 4 and control methods are illustrated in Table 5. Each exotic species recorded on
site has been assigned a specific method of contro! (Table 6).
Hand removal is the preferred method of herbaceous weed control near creeks and
waterways, however, where this is ineffective RoundUp Bioactive, or a similar product
suitable for use in waterways, may be used.
Particular care must be taken to avoid poisoning native species, particularly young
saplings, native grasses and herbaceous species.
Exotic grasses are to be treated (by spraying) 2-3 weeks prior to planting — particular care
must be taken to avoid spraying native grasses. Woody and herbaceous species are also
; to be treated prior to planting. ‘ ae ae
Two weeks following spraying of rank exotic grasses these are to be knocked down by
brushcutting — particular care must be taken to avoid slashing native species.
‘ a
Site Preparation Any rubbish will need to be collected and disposed of offsite at a Council approved
location or rubbish disposal depot.
Mulch Blanket muiching (hoop pine mulch) to a depth of 100mm will be undertaken across the
site
Jute matting may be required along the creek bank.
Plant Supply Seedlings shall be sourced from local provenance stock (where possible).
Species and numbers are scheduled in Table 3.
Planting stock shall be provided in forestry tubes with a minimum plant height of 20cm
and a well developed root system.
Seedlings are to be heaithy and displaying signs of active growth — any plants displaying
yellowing, disease, root curling or are root bound are not to be planted, nor are any plants
with weeds growing in the pot.
Planting Planting technique is illustrated below:
i = sf Tubestock Planting
Plant in a slight shallow twice the size of
the tube container, ensuring rootball is just
below soil surface.
Fertiliser tablet to be placed adjacent to,
but not touching, the rootball
Soil to be backfilled to the same level as
when the plant was in the container
Mulch to a depth of 100mm to surround
plant, but not touch the stem.
Seedlings must be moist at time of planting, if necessary water stock prior to planting.
Trees are to be planted at 5m centres or at 2m centres for screening purposes. Shrubs
are to be planted at 2m centres or at 1m centres for screening purposes. Ground covers
are to be planted at between 0.5m-1m centres (Noosa Planning Scheme Policy 3).
Watering Seedlings are to be watered with a minimum of 5 — 10 litres of water each at the time of
planting and then watered as part of general maintenance requirements.
Habitat Features Habitat features such as rocks, fallen branches and dead trees and shrubs in ail-Areas
. . are to be retained in situ unless they pose a safety risk.
Maintenance and Plantings will be maintained for a minimum period of 12 months.

Seaview Terrace Rehabilitation Plan 9

All weed species are to be removed according to the methods set out in Table 5.

Particular care must be taken to avoid poisoning native species, particularly young
saplings and native grasses and forbs. Care must also be taken due to the porous
nature of sand and the site layout (hill sloping to a creek and Sunshine Beach).

Table 5 - Weed Control Methods

 

1. Hand Removal

Removal of small weeds by hand, To be employed for weeds where the entire root
system can be easily removed by hand whilst minimising soil disturbance. Care is
necessary to ensure seed is not disbursed. Plants likely to restrike (eg Singapore. Daisy)
or set propagules must be removed from site.

 

2. Crown or underground stem removal

Employed for plants growing from a solid central crown below ground jevel such as

Protasparagus aethiopicus:

= a blade is used to severe the roots from the central crown;

= severing the attached roots and removing the crown or underground stem with the
plant;

® seed heads must be removed prior to crowning.

Cut material and seeds are to be removed from site.

 

3. Cut stump method

This method is ideal for woody plants and vines without aerial tubers:

= cut the stem close to the ground, if possible below the lowest branch;

= immediately (with 30 seconds) apply herbicide using a small squeeze bottle to the cut
surface;

« Generally 1 part Glyphosate (or similar product) to 1.5 parts of water is suitable to
achieve a kill with most species

Cut material will be left on site to enhance fauna habitat, except where, in the judgement of

the Contractor the material is likely to restrike (e.g. Singapore Daisy) or set propagules. in

this case material is to be transported as waste from the site and not utilised onsite.

 

4. Spraying

Useful for grasses and herbaceous species. Care must be undertaken to avoid drift by
selecting appropriate nozzles, adjusting droplet size, spraying in jow wind conditions and
keeping the spray head close to the target plant.

Spot spraying: Undertaken manually with a knapsack or motorised spray unit. Knapsack
foliar spraying will be employed for the preparation of planting areas, the selective target of
individual weeds in planting beds or rehabilitation areas as part of bush rehabilitation and
part of on-going maintenance. Tall dead standing grass and herbaceous weeds shall be
brushcut prior to planting areas,

 

 

 

 

§. Chipping method

Employed for trees and shrubs to be left in situ to naturally decay:

= shallow cuts are made just under the bark into the living tissue with a small axe as close
to the ground below the lowest branch; ys

= herbicide applied with a squeeze bottle immediately (within 30 seconds) into the
exposed cut surface;

* continue cuts around the trunk at the same level, with 5 cm gaps between each cut;

© Generally 1 part Glyphosate (or similar product) to 1.5 parts of water is Suitable to

achieve a kill with most species the.

Generally standing trees shail be left to rot in sifu, especially on steep slopes where tree

roots are maintaining slope stability and preventing erosion. However, once senescent, it

may be appropriate to fell the tree (without causing damage to rehabilitation) if it poses a

safety hazard or significantly reduces site amenity.

6. Tree injection

Employed for trees and shrubs to be left in situ to naturally decay:

= holes are drilled at a downward angle into the tree's sapwood at Scm spaces;

= if a “Side Winder or similar device is not employed herbicide is then applied
immediately (within 30 seconds) into each hole small with a squeeze bottle;

« Best results are achieved with plants, which are actively growing;

= Generally 1 part Glyphosate (or similar product) to 1.5 parts of water is suitable to
achieve a kill with most species.

Generally standing trees shall be left to rot in situ, especially on steep slopes where tree

roots are maintaining slope stability and preventing erosion. However, once senescent, it

may be appropriate to fell the tree (without causing damage to rehabllitation) if it poses a

safety hazard or significantly reduces site amenity. .

 

 

 

squeeze bottie;

 

7. Scraping the stem method
This method is used for plants with aerial tubers, “such as Madeira Vine.

«a sharp knife is employed to lightly scrape a section of stem (approximately 10cm)
removing bark and exposing the living tissue;
« apply herbicide immediately (within 30 seconds) to the ‘exposed section with a small’

» Generally 1 part Glyphosate (or similar product) to 1.5 parts of water is suitable to
achieve a kill with most species

 

Specifically the weeds identified on site in Table 4 are to be removed from all zones
within the site using the techniques illustrated above in Table 5. Table 6 outlines the
appropriate removal technique for each weed species on site.

2.6 MONITORING

Monitoring will be undertaken regularly to ensure rehabilitation efforts meet the
objectives outlined in Section 1.3.2. Monitoring of vegetation (for health and weed
growth) over the entire site is to be undertaken as part of routine maintenance. To
further assist with monitoring and to provide a visual record of rehabilitation progress,
it is recommended that photo points be established over the site. Photos shall be taken
in conjunction with other monitoring activities. Adaptive management principles
should be utilised to ensure the rapid establishment of canopy cover and restoration of
- habitat.
