be effectively stabilised using methods which have achieved effective short-term stabilisation
and which will continue to achieve effective stabilisation in the medium to long-term. For the
purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised surface is defined as one that does not, or
is not likely to result in visible evidence of soil loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion or
lead to sedimentation, or lead to water contamination.
37. Minimise on-site erosion and the release of sediment or sediment laden stormwater from the
site at all times by implementing industry best practice for erosion and sediment control as
per the International Erosion Control Association, Best Practice Erosion and Sediment
Control documents (2008 or later version). Including but not limited to:
a. Drainage control measures must be implemented and maintained to minimise water flow
across areas of exposed earth;
b. Sediment and erosion control measures must be implemented and maintained to prevent
soil loss from earth disturbance areas and prevent deposition beyond earth disturbance
areas; and
c. No release of contaminants to land beyond on-site area of earth disturbance unless all
