Bushfire Hazard Assessment & Management Plan v2 NCES REF: J001445
434 Lake Cooroibah Rd Lake Cooroibah, QLD
9 CONCLUSIONS
This Bushfire Hazard Assessment and Management Plan (BHAMP) has been prepared to
assess the bushfire risk associated with a proposed 1 into 2 Reconfiguration of a Lot
development application over Lot 78 on SP116879 - 434 Lake Cooroibah Rd Lake Cooroibah,
QLD.
A Local Hazard Map has been prepared for the site consistent with the State Planning Policy
– Natural Hazards, Risk and Resilience – Technical Manual – A ‘fit for purpose’ approach in
undertaking natural hazard studies and risk assessments. The Local Hazard Map identifies
proposed Lot 7 is captured in a Potential Impact Buffer and Low Hazard Area.
A bushfire risk assessment has been undertaken and identifies the extent of Lot 7 is exposed
to an acceptable risk of radiant heat flux impact as defined in Assessment Benchmark 4 of the
SPP Bushfire 2019; <29 kW/m² RHF exposure.
A building envelope has been nominated in Lot 7 which provides the opportunity to secure a
BAL 29 construction standard under AS3959 2018.
A linear driveway of approx. 250m set through low hazard conditions will service the new lot.
The driveway requires an upgrade to satisfy width and passing bay requirements.
Lot 7 will not to be connected to the municipal reticulated water supply hence requires
provision of a dedicated 10KL static water supply.
Overall, the development proposed for the site, in combination with recommendations
referenced herein, is deemed suitable with respect to providing an acceptable to tolerable
level of bushfire risk acting on people and property within the site.
Bushfire is an extremely serious and often unpredictable phenomenon that requires serious
preparatory planning and decision making to avoid potential damage to infrastructure and or
loss of life. All recommendations made herein have been formulated based on site conditions
at the time of writing and therefore may not be appropriate in the event site conditions change
over time.
Implementation of the bushfire mitigation measures referenced herein is not implied nor
intended to advocate that residents remain on the site during a bushfire event, nor that people
and property will be protected from bushfire impact. The measures are intended to reduce the
potential severity of bushfire impact to persons and property and not prevent actual bushfire
impact.
The landowners and site managers are to be responsible for ensuring the measures
prescribed herein are applied and stay up to date with site conditions and industry standards.
Landholders/managers should therefore liaise with Queensland Fire and Rescue Services at
regular intervals (e.g., recommended at least every 5 years).
The first call in the event of a bushfire emergency should always be ‘000’.
9.1 Certification Matters
The following bushfire mitigation measures are to be certified as satisfactorily completed by
the project Bushfire Consultant prior to commencement of the proposed/approved uses on the
site:
• All actionable recommendations set in Section 5 of this report have been implemented
(i.e., APZ, landscaping etc.) where practical at the time of certification.
