The flood extent mapping shows that there are no significant changes to flooding extents
(pre vs post development) external to the site and that the lots are not impacted by 1%
AEP flows through the central channel. Some minor overland flow is observed through
the western portion of the site where the existing topography channelises flow as it leaves
the site’s western boundary.
5.4 Water Quality Management
The intended land use (rural residential plus significant areas of environmental covenant)
is considered low impact with respect to pollutant load generation when compared to
typical urban developments. The target pollutants for water quality management in new
developments are typically organics (phosphorous and nitrogen), suspended solids
(sediment) and gross pollutants (litter). A large percentage of these pollutants are
released to downstream waterways as a result of land disturbance associated with
earthworks and building operations. The proposed development works will include
erosion and sediment control measures during the construction phase and minimal
pollutant load generation during the operational phase.
New roads will be subject to local traffic only with a low volume of vehicle movements
expected. Runoff from these areas will be directed to vegetated buffers and swale drains
which will provide primary and tertiary water quality treatment prior to discharge at the
existing waterways. The high overall percentages of pervious surfaces within the site will
disconnect impervious areas and promote infiltration of stormwater runoff.
No further water quality management is proposed for the site. This approach is
considered generally in accordance with SPP Guidelines and has been approved for similar
development sites in the area.
