Release To Waters
WT1 Site erosion protection measures and sediment control measures must be implemented and
must have the hydraulic effectiveness to treat stormwater for 90% of the annual runoff for
each stormwater catchment.
Where soils are temporarily exposed for the construction of new facilities or to facilitate
changes in landfill design, all reasonable and practical measures must be implemented to
minimise the amount of sediments able to discharge from the site. As a minimum the following
design criteria apply:
1. Collect and drain stormwater from disturbed soils to a sediment basin sized to contain
an 80th% five-day event or similar; and
2. The design life and design storm for temporary drainage works to convey waters to
the sediment basin and around disturbed areas are:
a) Disturbed area open for <12 months-1 in 2-year ARI event plus 150mm
freeboard; and
b) Disturbed area open for 12-24 months—1 in 5-year ARI event plus 150mm
freeboard; and
c) Disturbed area open for > 24 months-1 in 10-year ARI event plus 150mm
freeboard; and
d) Temporary culvert crossing—minimum 1 in 1-year ARI hydraulic capacity
WT2 The release of collected and treated stormwater to waters, from areas of the site not likely to
be contaminated with waste materials, must be in accordance with Table 2— Compliance limits
for controlled release of treated stormwater to surface waters.
