              Soil Contamination
        9.    As part of any Operational Works application for the site a detailed site

              the National Environment Protection (Assessment of Site Contamination)
              Measure 1999 (NEPM) is required. The report must conclude:
              a.    whether the site is suitable for the proposed new use/development (with
                    and without remediation and/or management);
              b.    whether any site contamination is causing, or is likely to cause,
                    ‘environmental harm’ (as defined under the Environmental Management
                    and Pollution Control Act 1994); and
              c.    whether any site contamination presents an occupational health and safety
                    risk to workers involved in redevelopment of the site.
        10.   If the site contamination assessment report concludes that remediation and/or
              management strategies are necessary to avoid risks to human health or the
              environment, a proposed remediation and/or management plan must be
              submitted to Council prior to the commencement of building works. Any
              remediation or management plan involving soil disturbance must include a
              detailed soil and water management plan to prevent off-site transfer of
              potentially-contaminated soil or stormwater.
              NB: It is mandatory for any contaminated land investigation documents, including
              investigation reports, validation reports and draft site management plans to be
              certified by an approved auditor and must have approval from the Department of
              Environment and Heritage and Protection (DEHP). DEHP have list of approved
              auditors.
