neighbouring properties or pond stormwater in the road reserve

Erosion and Sediment Control

Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in Schedule 10 of Environmental Protection
Regulation 2019) must not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely
to be released should rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are
taken to prevent or minimise the release and concentration of contamination.

Sediment and erosion control measures must be in place prior to works commencing. If such
measures are not in place or are not satisfactory, “on the spot” fines may be issued. Such
fines can be issued if sediments from the site are found to enter or have the potential to enter
Council’s stormwater system, natural waterways, any downstream stormwater filtration
system or adversely impacting on other properties. It is the site's Principal Contractor who is
responsible for ensuring that the sediment and erosion control measures have:

a. Been installed in accordance with "best practise" methods,

b. Been revised by issues raised by changes in the projected construction schedule
and/or methods,

Cc. Been revised to address predicted rainfall events, and
d. Achieve the desired environmental outcomes.

Council may request further controls to be installed should the implemented measures be
found inefficient.

The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and maintained in
accordance the current best practice standards * (Refer to Advisory Note).

The developer must ensure non-essential exposure of soil is prevented by restricting the
extent of disturbance and minimising the duration of soil exposure to adverse weather
conditions and effectively turf, cover or stabilise any disturbed area without delay and prior
to rainfall occurring.

The developer must ensure sediment does not leave the site or enter onto adjoining
properties or Council’s drainage system due to surface runoff or on tyres of vehicles and/or
machinery. It is essential to implement appropriate approved erosion and sediment control
measures throughout the site during all phases of construction including vehicle shakedown
pad/grid (or similar) at the access to the construction site. Where sediments or other
contaminants are deposited on a road, they must be removed so as not to enter Council's
drainage system or waterways.

Prior to the completion of the development and commencement of use, all site surfaces must
be effectively stabilised using methods which have achieved effective short-term stabilisation
and which will continue to achieve effective stabilisation in the medium to long-term. For the
purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised surface is defined as one that does not, or
is not likely to result in visible evidence of soil loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion or
lead to sedimentation, or lead to water contamination.

Damage to Services and Assets

Any damage caused to existing services and assets as a result of the development works
must be repaired at no cost to the asset owner at the following times:

a. where the damage would cause a hazard to pedestrian or vehicle safety,
immediately; or

b. — where otherwise, upon completion of the works associated with the development.

Any repair work which proposes to alter the alignment or level of existing services and assets
must first be referred to the relevant service authority for approval.
