1.0    INTRODUCTION

This report is in support of an Operational Works application to Sunshine
Coast Regional Council seeking to develop a residential building at Lots 5 and
6 Serenity Close, Noosa Heads.

In particular, this report addresses water quality and stormwater management
issues raised in the Material Change of Use Decision Notice (Reference
2005/0699) for this project dated 6 December 2010.



2.0    EXISTING CONDITIONS

The subject site currently has bulk earthworks operations (basement
excavation) complete. The entire site consists of loose, poorly graded dunal
sand and as such contains no overland drainage paths since rainwater
infiltrates directly through the permeable surface.




3.0    PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT

Due to the sensitive nature of the local ecosystems, it is proposed to match
existing runoff conditions as closely as possible. In order to achieve this it is
proposed to reintroduce all runoff from impervious areas into the subsurface
via a series of rapid infiltration pits (RIP's). The remainder of the site will be
directed towards the numerous gardens on the site to infiltrate naturally.




4.0    RAPID INFILTRATION PITS (RIP's)

Runoff from impervious areas will be directed to a series of RIP's. Gutters and
spouting will be sized accordingly.       Tate Professional Engineers have
conducted testing for infiltration rates for ground conditions within the
development site. Results were consistent indicating a liner relationship
between driving head and infiltration rate such that:

Infiltration Rate (mm/s) = 4mm/sec + 13.6 x head (m).

Stormwater runoff from roofs is to be conveyed to RIP's via pipework with
runoff from hardstand areas conveyed via vegetated swales.         Rainwater
harvesting tanks are to be employed to capture and store roofwater for use in
irrigation.

It is proposed to link the RIP's together by a pair of 150mm dia slotted uPVC
balance pipes to prevent overtopping should one RIP become inoperable.




5.0    CALCULATIONS


In order to model the operation of the RIP's, a spreadsheet has been developed
and used for similar projects in Noosa Shire.

Temporal patterns for Zone 3 from the Australian Rainfall and Runoff, Volume
2 were applied. These temporal patterns were used in conjunction with the
average rainfall intensities for the Noosa region to create a series of design
storms of varying duration for a 10 year or 100 year average return interval
(ARI), depending on location of the RIP.

Temporal patterns were converted to flow rates by breaking each storm event
into a series of short duration storms.     A triangular flow verses time
approximation was used for each substorm with substorm flows then added to
produce flow Vs time for RIP inflow.

Outflow and water depth were then calculated through iterations for the
duration of the storm based on the infiltration rate / head relationship
discussed in Section 4. A factor of safety of 2.0 was applied to this infiltration
rate. Each RIP was then sized to prevent overtopping the appropriate design
storm event of any duration.

Spreadsheet model results are attached in Appendix C.

ELEMENT:                                                MAINTENANCE OF RAPID
                                                        INFILTRATION PITS (RIP's)
1.    Objective                To ensure ongoing function of RIP's in reintroducing
                               runoff into the subsoil.

2.    Management Strategy      Treat runoff from vehicular hardstand areas via
                               grease/oil arrestor units prior to discharge to RIP's.

                               Regularly service grease/oil arrestor units and RIP's to
                               ensure ongoing function.

3.    Actions                     1. Grease/oil arrestor
                                  -  service        as         per        manufacturers

Housekeeping

To ensure that the Fox Model BPT600 unit performs the function for which it is installed there are some very
basic housekeeping functions that need to be performed. The interval between these activities is very much
site specific. A responsible approach to these functions will provide the maximum benefit to the environment.

    •   When large items of floating debris (such as plastic bags, drink cans etc.) are observed on the inlet
        grate of the unit they should be collected and disposed of in a suitable manner. The Fox BPT600 does
        not capture these items they simply prevent them from entering the stormwater discharge through the
        unit. If they are not removed they could still be harmful to the environment if they are washed or
        blown off the site.

    •   Regularly inspect the unit for a build up of captured pollutants within the silt basket. This should be
        done on a weekly basis or more often if large quantities of silts are being retrieved.

    •   To empty the silt basket the slide bolt on the grate should be slid back using a screwdriver or similar
        and the grate lifted and moved forward to enable access to be gained to the basket.

        Please note that the grate is heavy and proper care should be taken when removing it.

            •   Remove the silt basket and dispose of captured pollutants in a suitable manner such as
                emptying it in a garbage bin or similar.

            •   As soon as the basket has been emptied it must be replaced and the grate returned to its'
                locked position.

        For safety reasons the unit should never be left unattended when the grate and basket are
        removed. For maximum environmental protection and to reduce maintenance costs the silt
        basket should always be in place within the unit.


Regular servicing of the Chamber.

From time to time the chamber of the unit will need to be cleaned of silt build up and retained hydrocarbons.
The frequency of this activity will depend on the site conditions of each installation.

    •   Fox Environmental Systems recommend that initially the units are cleaned on a 3 monthly basis. This
        service should consist of a minimum of the following activities.

            •   Carefully capture any floating hydrocarbons in the chamber.

        Captured hydrocarbons must be disposed of in a manner prescribed in the Environmental
        Protection Act.

            •   Pump water from within the chamber and filter through a minimum 20 micron filter before
                allowing discharging into the stormwater system.

            n   Remove all silt and sediment build up from within the chamber and dispose of it in a suitable
                manner such as emptying it in a garbage bin or similar.

            n   Following each service quantities of pollutants that are removed should be recorded to enable
                proper assessment of the serving frequencies required to be ascertained.
